Motion Sensor Light Bulbs, 13W (100Watt Equivalent), Motion
$23.99
Product Overview
The Motion Sensor Light Bulbs are an intelligent lighting solution designed to enhance both home security and energy efficiency. These 13W LED bulbs deliver the brightness of a traditional 100-watt incandescent bulb, producing 1100 lumens at a crisp 5000K daylight color temperature. Featuring both PIR (Passive Infrared) motion detection and dusk-to-dawn functionality, they automatically activate when movement is sensed in low-light conditions, providing hands-free operation for added safety in both indoor and outdoor environments.
Sold in a convenient 4-pack, these bulbs are ideal for homeowners seeking reliable automatic lighting for high-traffic or vulnerable areas such as entryways, hallways, staircases, garages, porches, and storage rooms. Their dual activation system ensures lights respond only when needed—during darkness or nighttime—helping reduce electricity consumption while improving visibility and deterring potential intruders.
Installation is straightforward with standard E26 base compatibility, though proper placement and environmental factors like temperature may influence performance. With a rated lifespan of up to 20,000 hours, these bulbs offer long-term savings and dependable illumination for everyday use.
Key Features
- PIR Motion & Dusk-to-Dawn Activation: The bulb detects movement within 8–16 feet and turns on automatically in darkness. It remains illuminated for 30–45 seconds after motion stops, then powers down. This feature activates only during low-light or nighttime conditions, ensuring energy-efficient operation.
- Bright Daylight Illumination: Delivers 1100 lumens of clear, bright light at 5000K color temperature, closely matching natural daylight for improved visibility, safety, and clarity.
- Energy-Efficient Design: At just 13 watts, this bulb produces the equivalent output of a 100-watt incandescent bulb while reducing energy consumption by up to 85%, helping lower utility bills over time.
- Long Lifespan: Rated for up to 20,000 hours of use, significantly outlasting standard incandescent bulbs and reducing replacement frequency.
- Wide Detection Angle: Features a 120-degree sensing range, allowing it to detect movement from multiple directions around the fixture.
- Enhanced Home Security: Automatically illuminates when motion is detected, serving as a deterrent to intruders and alerting you to activity in dark areas.
- Versatile Application: Suitable for use in various locations including staircases, hallways, bathrooms, front doors, garages, porches, closets, balconies, and gates.

Benefits & Use Cases
These motion sensor light bulbs enhance safety, convenience, and energy efficiency across a wide range of residential settings. They are especially effective in areas where consistent lighting is essential but manual switching isn’t practical—such as stairwells, hallways, bathrooms, and garages. For outdoor applications, they are ideal for porches, gates, storage areas, and garage entrances, where automatic illumination can deter unwanted activity and improve nighttime visibility.
For homeowners, the combination of motion activation and dusk-to-dawn control means lights respond intelligently to real needs—illuminating only when necessary, which conserves energy and extends bulb life. The daylight white light ensures clarity without harshness, making it suitable for both functional and aesthetic purposes. Many customers report that the bulbs are easy to install and operate, consistently turning on and off at appropriate times, and consider them worth the price for the energy savings and added security.
Because they work with standard E26 fixtures, installation is simple without requiring special wiring or electrical upgrades. However, optimal performance depends on correct mounting orientation and avoiding enclosed fixtures or obstructions that could block the sensor. Proper installation ensures reliable operation and maximizes the benefits of automation.
Installation Tips
To ensure optimal performance and longevity, follow these guidelines during installation:
- Do not install the bulb in enclosed or fully covered fixtures, as this may interfere with heat dissipation and sensor function.
- Ensure the sensor head remains unobstructed and faces the intended detection zone within the recommended distance and angle.
- Keep the switch controlling the bulb always turned on to enable automatic operation; do not use dimmers or smart switches unless confirmed compatible.
- Always disconnect power before installation or maintenance to prevent electrical hazards.
- The sensor performance may be affected by ambient temperature; sensing distance can be shorter in hot weather compared to cooler seasons.
- This product is packaged as a set of four bulbs, ideal for covering multiple areas in one purchase.
Important Notes
- Performance may vary depending on installation environment and external conditions.
- Some users have reported shorter lifespans (e.g., lasting only a year or less), so actual results may differ based on usage frequency and conditions.
- This information is derived from customer experiences and product specifications; individual results may vary.

Awesome Works Great
Dusk to Dawn porch bulb works great. Just screw it in, keep the light switch to the on position and when turning night outside the porch light will come on automatically. Very simple no instructions needed, just screw in the light bulb.

Better Than I Imagined!
I purchased these for my outdoor fixtures flanking my garage and they work wonderfully even though my fixtures are enclosed! they are a fraction of the cost offered by home improvement stores nearby.

Just what I wanted
Great bulb, works well with motion from dusk to dawn, will buy again!!!

Works well, the light color is a little harsh
I bought these for the front and back door lights at our weekend house. It’s a lot easier installation (screw in) than adding a whole new fixture. They come on as you approach the door, stay on for a reasonable time, and don’t come on during daylight. My only criticism is that the color of the light is like a fluorescent light, kind of purplish…it is bright though, and wasn’t bought to be mood lighting, so I’m quite happy.

Lots of light where needed
Put motion sensor light bulbs in basement. Have a lot of light fixtures, don’t need all lights on at once. Just ordered 8 more for the rest of area. Brightens areas needed without wasting electric were not needed. Can’t wait for delivery.

Works Well – Range of Sensor is Just Right – See UPDATES regarding advice to prevent failure
Having tried an adapter with an integrated sensor used with a non-sensing bulb, I found that the application at hand had a socket that partially covered the sensor on the adapter and thus failed to meet the need. So, this product, with an internal sensor, turned out to be a great choice. The light levels that trip the sensor on and off correspond to dusk and dawn for a fixture that is on a covered porch. The 3000K color temperature is warm enough to emulate that of an old-tech incandescent bulb. The 100w equivalent rating is justified – almost too bright, so if there were a 75w equivalent that might be a better choice.All-in-all, great. Highly recommended. I’ll let you know in 20 years when this bulb is expected to expire.UPDATE: About a week into the application described above, the first bulb failed – will not light up under any circumstance. The test is valid because the second bulb lights up in the dark as it should under identical conditions. One week is not “twenty years.”UPDATE #2: The failure reported in the above UPDATE was preventable. After exchanges of messages with the seller, and the astoundingly clear and open communication on the part of the seller, I understood that these bulbs are unlikely to be compatible with fixtures that have a dimmer in their circuits. Running the bulb at less than full brightness (accidentally) apparently fried the first bulb and it is not usable. The second bulb displayed a lot of flashing at some point, but it has survived. I thus attribute the problem to my ignorance of the dimmer incompatibility, not the product quality. I did recommend that the seller make it clear in the listing that it is likely the bulbs will fail with dimmers, perhaps not all, but even if they do work the dimmers should be kept at full brightness.My thanks to the seller for enduring this adventure with me, and for clarifying the problem. Excellent customer care!

Would But Again
Works well, better than expected. Colour is nice, the dusk to dawn feature is great.
Gantor –
Best decision of my life!
These have been a life saver!!! I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve come home and fumbled with my keys to find the lock in the Dark. Now my light’s got my back!! Very bright and turns on right at dusk. Perfect!
Jethro Jaguar –
Works exactly as described in product listing. This brand will not disappoint.

Working perfectly
Wildrose –
Nice idea but they don’t stay on very long. Only about 10 seconds before blinking off. And the sensor seems a bit wonky. I notice it’s on often when nothing has triggered it and some times I have to wave my hand under it to try to get it to come on. I bought it for my long hallway where the light switch is at the far end of my hall… was hoping that this would prevent me from keeping it on all day so I don’t have to try to wander in the dark to the far end where the switch is. And I found out it won’t work in my outdoor back yard light because it has a whitish light cover on that light. It does work on my front door exterior light well tho. It has a clearer light cover.
