Steinel Motion Sensor IS 180-2 White, PIR Motion Detector

Why did you choose this product over others?: Great product and works well with LED lights

This is my second installation of a Steinel PIR. Beautiful design, excellent build quality and flawless reliability. Worth paying a little extra for, although having said that it was half the price coming from the EU than anywhere I could find it in the UK

The same Steinel quality I have come across before. A little expensive but I expect it will last longer and perform better than cheaper products. This model has two settings, a 5m semi-circle which works perfectly and a 12m setting of a more complex sensor "shape" illustrated in the manual. The result of the "shape" is that it is not 12m head on and I have found it difficult to selectively mask the 45deg 12m peaks against unwanted detection. I'm not criticising that characteristic as it is described in the manual but it needs to be understood if a 12m range is wanted. If an 8m semi-circle would suit consider this model... Steinel IS2180-5 Motion Detector, Black (which, unlike the reviewed model, has a manual over-ride feature) One thing I will knock a star off for in the hope that Steinel will address the issue is that every time I remove the cover on all my Steinels, necessary to adjust settings and I agree with enclosed adjustment, the plastic mask pieces fall out, usually to the ground.

This is a very good product. This replaces one that had been in use for over ten years, which seems reasonable. They are quite expensive but are well worth the money. Coverage is good, 6 or 12 yards (the choice is yours) and both the starting time and the duration of the light are adjustable, they are very sensitive and work well. For once the fixing instructions are very clear - they are German not Chinese. Definitely recommended.

Quality product. Well constructed with lots of installation options. Instructions are clear and detailed. Works from two different ranges depending on how you install the lens cover. Comes with shield material you can cut to size to limit the beam angle. Quality screws and rawlplugs included. Very wide (180 degree) activation angle.

I spent a long time investigating motion sensors and decided to go for this model as it came with a 3 year warranty and looked straight forward to install. A bit on the expensive side. It took a couple of hours to fit, the secret is to wire the sensor on a bench (easy to handle) then feeding the cables through the wall to a junction box x 2. One for feed and the other to the lights. I have 2 outdoor LEDs lights feeding from this and the adjustment settings easy to work out. So far so good works great.

I couldn't work out why my outside lights kept tripping so just left them off, until I chanced on some of the reviews of this PIR I was using and realised it could be the cause, so took a chance and ordered a new one, replaced it and hey presto all working again. This was after 5 years. So, regard as something that will need replacing every few years and judge it on that - it's not cheap but it does a great job while it lasts...

This is an excellent motion sensor. In the hands of a good electrician they can be wired up and adjusted to give you the sensitivity you need. Thank you very much.

Très bonne sensibilité, je viens d'en installer un dans ma nouvelle maison, j'avais le même en blanc dans mon ancienne maison qui a toujours très bien fonctionné. Pratique les éléments a positionner sur la cellule pour affiner les angles de détection. Un peu cher, mais produit très quali

Casi tres años he tardado en montarlo pues el que tenía siguió funcionando un poco más pero ha muerto definitivamente ha costado montarlo 15 minutos las instrucciones están muy claras queda mucho más fino que el que tenía se regula muy bien la luminosidad con la que se enciende y el tiempo de encendido muy contento

Sensori che conosco bene in quanto già utilizzati. Grazie alle dimensioni contenute e al design risultano molto discreti. Facile da montare, da collegare e anche da regolare.

bon produit
