Tools and Hardware Reviews of Leviton IPP15-1LW Decora Manual-On Occupancy Sensor, Single Pole, 3-Way or More Applications, 180-Degree Field of View, White
Customer Review: Pricy, but unique enough to warrant it
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased these for a bathroom & hallway in which my 'tween boys constantly leave the lights on. I like the fact that it cannot be left on indefinitely without occasional motion and it has to be turned on each time. It also acts as a timer in the bathroom -- I told my son who likes long showers, when the lights go out, his shower time is up. Very nice. For the hallway, which has 2 switches in 3-way, I had to buy another Leviton switch (the VZ0SR) to get it to work, but that wasn't a big deal. These are perfect if you want manual control each time vs. auto on, which these do not do. Leviton & Cooper both make cheaper versions for automatic-on functionality. Of course, their cheaper versions do not let you use CFLs, which have electronic ballasts, so you get what you pay for. I am running mostly CFLs with these two and they work perfectly. That is definitely a plus that pays you back for the extra $$ you will pay for these.Customer Review: How this thing is suppose to work
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent energy saving device. I just installed one in our common rest room in the main floor. It functions like a normal switch with manual on/off but it shuts off when there is no motion detected by the sensor for a certain time frame base on your preference.
One reviewer wrote that he is disappointed that it doesn't turn on by itself whenever motion is detected. This is not that kind of switch. Who would want a switch that turns on each time it detected a motion even on broad daylight. If you are looking for a motion activated switch for certain application such as your always-dark basement then this is not for you. But if you are looking for a switch that turns off the light whenever somebody forgets to do so, then this is perfect! Five star for the great idea.

Is a manual on, adjustable auto off switch(30 seconds to 30 minutes).
Requires a matching type switch for three way action.
Will turn back on, if in 30 seconds if it senses motion after an auto off
Works with fluorescent lights in bathroom!
Customer Review: Yes! it works for my flourescents!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am very happy with this sensor. I tried a few different ones I bought from Lowes and Home Depot but they would not work with the flourescent lights in my garage. It costs a little more than those Lowes and Home Depot ones but it sure beats changing out the lighting fixtures.Customer Review: Great Product
Summary: 5 Stars
Works great not my wife and kids are not leaving the lights on throughout the house.
The only shame is my kitchen has the light switches aimed the wrong way so it can be used there.
