Re: External PIR recommendations? (comfort)

[Kieran Broadfoot <kjb@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Peter, this is extremely useful. According to the link they
don't appear to be ideal for direct sunlight.  However it did point me
to the Optex LX-402 which do seem to be a great, albeit slightly more
expensive, alternative.

Thanks again for your help
