LEONLITE COB LED Security Light, Motion Sensor Flood Lights
$39.99
Product Overview
The LEONLITE COB LED Security Light is a robust and intelligent outdoor lighting solution designed to enhance both security and energy efficiency in residential and commercial environments. Built with high-performance COB LEDs and advanced motion-sensing technology, this dual-head flood light delivers bright, consistent illumination wherever it’s needed most. Its triple-operation system—including ON TIME, AUTO, and DUSK TO DAWN modes—provides flexible control tailored to daily routines or seasonal changes. With an IP65 waterproof rating, durable aluminum construction, and wide voltage compatibility (100–277V), this fixture stands up to harsh weather and demanding applications while maintaining reliable performance year-round.
Key Features
- Highly Sensitive Motion Detection: The integrated motion sensor offers an expansive 180° detection angle and a maximum sensing range of up to 59 feet (18 meters). This ensures reliable activation when movement occurs within its field of view—ideal for monitoring driveways, backyards, entryways, garages, and commercial perimeters.
- Triple Operation Modes for Flexible Use:
- ON TIME Mode: Allows full manual control—turn the light on or off as desired without automation.
- AUTO Mode: Automatically activates the light only when ambient light levels drop below a threshold AND motion is detected. This mode balances convenience and energy savings by preventing unnecessary operation during daylight or in already-lit areas.
- DUSK TO DAWN Mode: Turns the light on at dawn and off at dusk, providing continuous nighttime illumination without reliance on motion triggers. This is especially useful in low-traffic zones where consistent lighting improves visibility and safety.
- Built-In Light-Sensing Function: Unlike basic sensors, this model intelligently distinguishes between natural darkness and artificial light sources such as streetlights or porch lights. Even if an external light shines directly onto the sensor at night, the unit won’t activate unless actual motion occurs—reducing false positives and improving reliability.
- Dual-Head Adjustable Design: Each head can be independently angled to customize coverage patterns. Whether you need broad-area floodlighting or focused spot coverage, the adjustable heads allow precise directional control to suit your space layout.
- IP65 Waterproof Rating & Durable Construction: Protected against dust ingress and powerful water jets from any direction, making it suitable for rain, snow, sleet, and wind. The aluminum housing adds strength and heat dissipation, supporting long-term outdoor use without degradation.
- ETL Certification & Wide Voltage Support: ETL-listed for compliance with North American electrical safety standards, ensuring safe installation and operation. Compatible with standard 100–277V AC power grids, making it adaptable across diverse regions and setups.

Benefits & Real-World Applications
This security light is engineered to deliver practical benefits across a variety of outdoor settings. Homeowners benefit from enhanced curb appeal and deterrence against potential intruders, particularly when installed near garage doors, side entrances, or dark corners of the property. The ability to switch between modes means users can prioritize energy savings (AUTO) during quieter evenings or ensure full illumination (DUSK TO DAWN) during early morning hours when activity is minimal.
In commercial applications—such as warehouses, loading docks, parking lots, or retail storefronts—the long-range motion detection and high lumen output support surveillance objectives and improve worker safety after sunset. The dual-head design allows facility managers to tailor coverage to specific blind spots or high-risk zones, increasing overall site security without over-lighting entire areas.
The inclusion of a light-sensing feature sets this model apart from simpler motion-activated fixtures. For example, if a neighbor’s porch light shines across your yard at night, traditional sensors might trigger unnecessarily. Here, the unit ignores that artificial glow unless true motion occurs—preventing nuisance activations and extending bulb life.
Additionally, the wide voltage range simplifies installation in both North American and international markets, reducing the need for voltage converters or transformers in compatible regions.
Important Notes for Installation & Performance
LEONLITE provides clear mounting hardware and step-by-step instructions to simplify setup. However, optimal performance depends heavily on proper placement. Position the unit at an appropriate height—typically 8–10 feet above ground—and avoid obstructions like foliage or signage that could block the sensor’s line of sight. Environmental factors such as dense tree cover or reflective surfaces may influence detection accuracy.
While many users report satisfactory motion sensitivity and build quality, some have noted variability in responsiveness depending on installation conditions or minor inconsistencies in manufacturing tolerances. This is common among mass-produced outdoor sensors and doesn’t necessarily indicate a defect. If initial results aren’t ideal, slight adjustments to angle or distance from reflective surfaces often help.
Always follow local electrical codes and consult a qualified electrician if unsure about wiring requirements. Ensure all connections are secure and weatherproof before finalizing the mount. Although the ETL listing confirms basic safety compliance, improper installation remains a risk regardless of certification.
Despite occasional mixed feedback regarding value perception or edge-case sensor behavior, the majority of buyers appreciate the balance of features, durability, and affordability. The combination of three usable modes, strong waterproofing, and reliable daylight white output makes this light a practical choice for those seeking smarter outdoor illumination without premium pricing.

A good motion-activated bright LED light for less than $50
To be clear, Torchstar provided me with a Bronze 20W Dual-Head Motion Activated LED Outdoor Security Light at no cost for evaluation. If you’ve read my reviews, I call it as I see it…Windward Hawaii devours anything left outdoors with constant salty wind & rain. I have 6 motion-activated lights around the house. Poorly designed security lights reveal themselves quickly by triggering frequently for no apparent reason.Every motion-activated light will false-trigger. The good ones don’t do it very often, the worst ones do it constantly from cheaply made sensors. In 10 days, the Torchstar light false-triggered 6 times that I know of (I don’t stay-up all night to monitor it!). The false-triggers were caused by 4 torrential downpours & wind, and 2 unknowns. Unknowns are OK, if they don’t happen often. It could be cats since there was no wind — in which case it’s not a false triggering. Torrential rains & wind can trigger any light I’ve ever installed. So far, this light offers above average sensor performance.To test sensitivity, I tried moving toward it from off to the side — from out in the yard. Motion sensors are most sensitive at angles, and less sensitive from straight-on. After moving the sensor around to find the best position, (every situation is different), I walked towards it slowly. It came on at about 30 ft. at 45 & 60 degree angles. From straight-on, it activated at about 20 ft. I never came close to the advertised 70 ft. sensitivity, which is typical. I’m sure under ideal conditions, the distance would improve, but in the real world, cut any advertised figure in half. I have one expensive motion light in the front yard facing the street. It’s sensor covers 270 degrees, and reaches 50+ ft., but it’s made for commercial properties, and cost $150! Heavy rain & wind triggers it too.So far, the Torchstar light seems to be a good motion-activated, very bright LED light. It does everything expected of it — well. The brightness of the lights is very impressive. Long periods of time in this environment will ultimately reveal if this light can withstand a tropical beating. So far, so good. I will update the review if anything changes… BTW, Costco sells a similar (but different) LED security light. They last about a year. I’ve had 5 fail — avoid it.Pros* Blindingly bright, don’t look at it! It lights-up my 1/3 acre open-space backyard well* Compact, this is not a big light. It’s light-weight too, aiding installation* Rotating shades on each light are a nice touch* Easy light adjustment (which is not the case on some lights)* Very efficient* Cool to the touchCons* I noticed the white version has a 180 degree (half circle) sensor, the bronze 150. They’re about the same price. The white model also moves the sensor farther out-front of the light, improving coverage. If you install a security light on the corner of your house, or along a wall, 180+ degree sensors are a must. Since I mounted the bronze version on a wall, it was possible to sneak-up very close to the light, but at 6 ft. it got me. 150 degree sensors have a more limited use. If the area you need covered is limited by trees, or is an alleyway or walkway, then 150 degree sensors are preferable. If mounted to cover wider areas, 150 degree lights can be thwarted by walking on the extreme sides.* Neutral colors better coordinate with a wider range of house color & surroundings. Bronze doesn’t match much except a redwood tree or a log cabin! White or gray would be better, I might spray-paint mine …

Great so far!!
This a a great replacement for a similar light that failed to come on with motion, this was a quality choice. Installation was a breeze and the fit was perfect to replace old fixture. The initial settings need to be done before you are satisfied and itâs a bit of a challenge with the very small manual that comes with the device but after setup I am very happy with the brightness and responsiveness to motion. Looks well made also!

Damaged boxes
Product is good. The package was really damaged and didn’t work. I got a replacement and it’s working and bright. If your package is damaged don’t waste your time. Get a new one. I spent alot of time installing and found out the product was faulty.
Tammy McClain –
Great for the price
This light is just what we needed. Our old light needed to be replaced and this was easy to install. It has enough light and range for our huge backyard. Great buy.
Rick Sturm –
Well worth the money
This works really well and the LED lights light up a big area in my driveway and illuminate with white light not diffused. I would recommend buying this. I will buy more. The sensitivity on the infrared detector is completely settable to whatever you want it to be.

Design flaw
Let me explain the problem. The junction box on which the light must be mounted is on an outside wall, of course, since this is an exterior light. Interior junction boxes are typically placed inside a wall, which requires a hole to be cut in the interior wall. In the case of an outside wall, I imagine people try to avoid cutting holes, so the junction box is surface mounted. It is also quite shallow, probably because people typically don’t want these things to protrude a lot. But as a result there is essentially no room inside the junction box for the wires that power the light, and the wire nuts that connect the wires. With my previous light this was no problem, because the back of the light — where it attached to the junction box — was recessed, providing room for the wires and wire nuts. Not the Leonllte product. The back of the light is completely flat and flush. So it is impossible to attach the light without leaving a huge gap between the light and the junction box and wall. Stupid!

Flexible settings and reliable motion detection
I needed to replace a simple back door back yard light and saw a good review of this on some web site. Ordered, shipped, installed quickly. I like that I can set it to only stay on for less than a minute so I still have a dark sky environment. I was able to aim the motion sensor and direction of the lights all independent and get great results.

Spotlight is good quality. The big problem is fitting it to a wall. It needs a special junction box (presumably the one illustrated in the assembly instructions which is specifically designed for the fittings supplied with the spotlight). When ordering the spotlight the need for a junction box is not mentioned, nor is it shown in the details on the Amazon website, therefore the assumption is that it can be fitted in the same way as a normal UK spotlight. THIS IS NOT THE CASE.
