Re: occupancy sensors with LED lights



I bought some LED lights https://secure24.easyspace.com/www.fancylighting.com/acatalog/Fancy_Lighting__Outdoor_Lighting_191.html
and put them in the skirting of the bathroom cupboards and connected to a
TM12U (tried an appliance mod and lamp mod but problems as the lights were
always on - the techies will know why but something to do with a trickle
current?) .

Then used MS14A to detect motion, picked up by MR26A that is on a COM port
on my HA PC.

Has been working well for about 6 weeks. Just need to sit down and do a
script for homeseer to stop this happening during day light hours as a bit
worried that the TM12U will wear out with all the clicking its doing.

So much to do - so little time!!

Thanks David,.  This seems to be a battery powered device, I was ideally
looking for one that plugged into a mains socket.  May have to cobble up
a couple of PIRs and some LEDs in a plastic box :-(

although I may be wrong. I assume from your reference to 'the bush' you are
in AU so this possibly is not much help. I don't know where play are based
or where they ship to.
