1 edit | Re: Changing light switch to a switch with timer or sensor Lowes and Home Depot both stock Motion Sensor lights. You need to go and look at what they have and install the light fixtures at each location you mentioned.

I know you think you understand what you thought I said, but what I'm not sure about is that what you heard isn't exactly what I meant. | |

Leander, TX | Re: Changing light switch to a switch with timer or sensor Besides motion detector lights also take a look at the florescent lights with photo cells (dusk to dawn) They are much more energy efficient than the lights used with the motion detectors and put out a whole lot of light. | |

| if your existing switches do not have a neutral to the box, you can't put a programmable timer there without re-wiring and will have ot go with the photocell lights as described above.

| I got a photocell / motion sensor lights at home depot for pretty cheap. I wired only two units to various exterior lights. It turns on at dusk and programmable to run for X hours. It has a dimmer controlled by the motion sensor. I got tired of timers and having to program. This I setup 5 or 6 years ago and I've never had to think about it. I replaced the timer with a normal switch.
