Tools and Hardware Reviews of First Alert PIR720RN Motion Sensing Light Socket
Customer Review: Fabulous Light Technician
Summary: 5 Stars
"Aziz, light! ... Thank You Aziz." is the line from The Fifth Element I'm reminded of when I open my basement door after parking in my garage, and the lights automatically go on. Now I just head upstairs without having to switch anything on or off! I had thought of wiring a 2 way switch, but would have had to run extra wiring etc.. This is so much easier.
The big plus is that now I don't even have to flip a switch, which is SO CONVENIENT if you have things in both hands and are already struggling with the door. Yes it does stay on for 4 minutes before turning itself off; surely we have, at times, unintentionally left lights on for much longer, so it's still a plus. Excellent product!!!

Summary: 5 Stars
The First Alert #PIR720R was exactly what I needed for a garage light. The sensor works great and I no longer have to fumble in the dark to find the light switch. It's great for safety and security reasons e.g. when pulling the car into the garage I now have automatic lighting. The product saves money in two ways. It automatically shuts off after a minute and I didn't have to hire an electrician to rewire the simple light fixture for an "outside" sensor. I was concidering an automatic door opener which would have had an automatic light, but that would have cost about $200 without installation! The First Alert just scews into the socket and is ready to perform. It has performed beyond my expectations.Customer Review: Motion sensing light socket

Great product! I've used it before. They last for several years then burn out. They start flickering and the light isn't as bright, then they won't turn off after no motion is detected. This is the 3rd time I have bought this model. When the last one stopped working I couldn't wait until the new one came in the mail. I got so used to it that I didn't realize how much I missed it. I use it in the laundry room where the only light switch is on the other entrance. Walking into a dark room with your hands full and having the light come on instantly as you approach is really essential. I've paid up to $45.00 the first time. You need to look around for a good price around $25-30.Customer Review: Worked perfectly for us; plan to get another!
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw this product mentioned in a magazine (not an ad) and wanted to give it a try. I ordered it for a rather dark unfinished basement where the cat's litter boxes and washer and dryer are located. I had a couple night lights there but the outlets are very few -- This worked just perfectly! I can walk into the basement and the light comes on. I don't have to grapple with a basket and trying to hit a switch. The cats can go in the basement and the light turns on for them to see the litterbox. Not that they expressed an opinion on it but I like that they have light. Worked perfectly from the very beginning and I plan to get one for my garage too.Customer Review: Homeowner
Summary: 5 Stars
Does what is claimed. It is very sensitive, I had to add a small frosted plastic shield taped hanging from the top of the sensor to prevent operation from an undesired direction. Do not put tape directly on the grey window part of the sensor. Use the old fashioned incandescent bulbs, not those new spiral fluorescent kind. There is a slight flicker with a 60W bulb, but for a closet, garage, basement bathroom, storage room or hard to reach location, not any real problem. It saved having to get into the electrical wiring and add a wall switch, and is very convenient, turning itself off after about 4 minutes of no movement.
