$17.99
Product Overview
The Motion Sensor Light Bulb is a smart, energy-efficient LED bulb designed to automatically illuminate when motion is detected in low-light conditions. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use, it enhances convenience and security by providing hands-free lighting exactly when needed—without wasting electricity during daylight hours. Built with a high-performance PIR infrared sensor and integrated dusk-to-dawn technology, this bulb intelligently responds only to human or animal movement within its detection range. Whether you’re lighting up a dark garage, shed, entryway, or garden path, this bulb offers reliable performance with minimal maintenance.
Key Features
- Built-in Dusk-to-Dawn Sensor: Prevents activation during daylight hours, ensuring the bulb only operates at night when ambient light levels are low. This not only conserves energy but also extends the bulb’s lifespan by avoiding unnecessary operation.
- PIR Infrared Motion Detection: Equipped with a premium-quality PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor located at the bulb’s tip, it detects movement within a range of 16 to 26 feet in the dark. The sensor is optimized to distinguish between living beings and non-living objects, reducing false triggers from wind-blown debris or insects.
- Continuous Illumination During Movement: As long as continuous motion occurs within the effective detection zone, the bulb remains lit, offering steady visibility for approaching individuals. This ensures safe navigation in dimly lit spaces.
- Automatic Shut-off After 30 Seconds: Once motion ceases, the bulb turns off after approximately 30 seconds. This intelligent shut-off feature helps reduce power consumption and minimizes light pollution, especially useful in residential areas.
- Sensitivity to Human and Animal Movement: Unlike generic motion sensors that may react to any heat source or moving object, this bulb is specifically tuned to respond only to the thermal signatures of people or large animals, improving reliability in environments with pets or variable weather.
- Flicker-Free, Eye-Comfort Design: Engineered for flicker-free performance, the bulb eliminates eye strain and discomfort often associated with lower-quality LEDs. It is also free from harmful substances such as lead, mercury, ultraviolet radiation, and excessive infrared emissions, making it safer for long-term use.

Benefits & Use Cases
This motion-activated LED bulb delivers significant advantages in both functionality and efficiency. Because it activates only in the dark and only when motion is detected, it dramatically reduces electricity usage compared to traditional always-on lighting solutions. For example, a single bulb in a rarely used basement or closet can save dozens of kilowatt-hours per year. Its extended detection range makes it ideal for open areas like driveways, walkways, stairwells, and wide hallways, where consistent coverage is essential.
Indoors, the bulb excels in garages, utility rooms, laundry areas, and under-stair storage spaces—places that are often difficult to reach and require quick, automatic illumination. Outdoors, it’s perfect for illuminating entryways, back patios, garden paths, and perimeter lighting, enhancing both safety and security without constant manual control.
The combination of intelligent sensing and automatic shut-off means you’ll never have to worry about leaving lights on overnight. Even if someone briefly passes by, the bulb will turn off shortly after they leave, preserving energy while maintaining peace of mind.
Additionally, because the bulb ignores non-human movement, it performs reliably even in windy conditions or areas frequented by pets. This selective sensitivity ensures fewer false positives and more dependable operation over time.
Important Installation Notes
- The bulb must be installed facing downward and positioned no higher than 10 feet above the ground. Installing it higher or at an angle may compromise sensor accuracy and reduce detection effectiveness.
- Avoid mounting the bulb in fully enclosed fixtures due to its clear glass design. While the bulb can withstand some exposure to moisture, completely sealed enclosures can block motion detection. If installation inside a protective cover is necessary (e.g., for weather resistance), ensure the PIR sensor area remains exposed to maintain full functionality.
- For first-time setup during daylight hours, the bulb will briefly activate for about 30 seconds before turning off until nighttime. This allows the internal sensors to calibrate properly and ensures it won’t trigger unnecessarily during the day.
- To prevent interference, do not install multiple motion-sensor bulbs closer than 10 feet apart or within the same fixture. Their sensors can interfere with each other, leading to erratic behavior such as flickering or inconsistent activation.
- For optimal performance, position the bulb strategically—angle the sensor toward expected foot traffic paths. Adjusting height and direction slightly can significantly improve responsiveness and coverage.

Inexpensive security light
Easy way to add security with these motion sensor bulbs. They have worked great and make the area well lit when triggered.

Motion is detected both night and day!!!!
Didnt read the small print? Who me!Didnt realize these DO NOT HAVE a ‘Day/Night’ feature.Further, they only stay on a short period of time when motion is detected.If you move away from the light it turns off…QUICKLY!

Motion light
These work pretty well, nice and bright, cost is efficient. They don’t stay on very long after motion has activated. You have to get pretty close to it to activate. I do like having it at my front door so I’m not fumbling for the switch. My dog can turn the light on for me when greeting me at night.

So far so good
I bought this product as a way to keep from having to run a light switch into my closet light bulb. Seems to work quite well. The motion sensor seems to work well and the timing is perfectly fine so that you can open the closet go in do whatever you need to do and get out without being in the dark and without having to worry about the stupid light switch I will try and update and see how long it lasts today is October 27th of 2024

Dusk to Dawn not working
The bulbs work fine from a motion sensing perspective, but the dusk to dawn function doesn’t work. The bulbs turn on whenever someone walks by regardless of day or night. There is plenty of light in the upstairs hall way but still the bulbs just turns on when detecting motion. Very dissapointed.

It’s very bright
It’s very bright. I want to like it, but it’s too bright for indoor. I would have keep it if I can put as an outdoor porchlight, but sensor will not work under cover so it useless. I put by the stairwell in basement, but the sensor will not work unless you walk close enough to it (within 1-2 feet) so I have to get close enough for it to turn on. So for my case it’s not working well.

Arrived even earlier than the earliest date amazon listed, so that was great. Colour is OK, maybe a tiny bit bluer than I’d like, not quite as nice as a halogen bulb.Some reviews say there is flicker on low setting, others not. For us I could detect a tiny bit of flicker on the first day, my partner (female) could not see any flicker. I think it depends on your eyesight. I can’t see any anymore, maybe it’s me or maybe it is something about the bulb.I wish is was a little brighter on high, but roughly as much light as the 30-40 watt incandescents it replaced.

Update… These bulbs are used in the bathroom. I found out that they make the skin look grayish… Still like them.Arrived on time. Very bright and not too white. They are longer than the original halogen bulb, but I knew this before buying them. They fit into the socket very nicely.I’m happy with my purchase.

Using these in a five bulb fixture in our main bathroom and its a good product. Arrived in decent time. Would like to see it dim just slightly more for late night use. The light off these bulbs was noticeably whiter than CFLs and other LEDs in my house. Very close to natural light.

So far so good. Very bright. Other bulbs ordered from alixpress died after 6 months. Hopefully these ones last. Will update when they die.
