Dusk-to-Dawn Photocell Sensor 2-Pack

This pair of light-control sockets automatically switches lamps on at dusk and off at dawn. Each unit screws into a standard screw-type socket and accepts an incandescent bulb. The set is designed for 120 V, 60 Hz mains and is intended for residential security lighting.

Simple Screw-In Installation

No wiring is required; the sensor threads into the existing lamp holder and the bulb threads into the sensor. The photocell must be positioned so street lamps or other ambient light do not prevent activation. Covering part of the sensor with opaque tape is often needed to tune the response for the specific mounting location.

Rated for 100-Watt Incandescent Bulbs

The switch supports standard incandescent bulbs from 60 to 150 watts, with a 100-wart maximum rating on the device itself. It is not compatible with fluorescent or LED lamps. Buyers outside the U.S. must verify that their mains voltage and frequency match the 120 V, 60 Hz specification before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the photocell sensor is switching the lamp on at dusk and off at dawn after installation?

After screwing the sensor into the socket and adding a standard incandescent bulb between 60 and 150 watts, observe the lamp at nightfall — it should illuminate automatically, then extinguish at first light without manual operation.

What comes in the 2-pack and do I need to purchase bulbs or wiring separately?

The pack contains two white screw-in photocell sensors rated for up to 100-watt incandescent bulbs; bulbs are not included and no extra wiring is required beyond a standard US 120 V 60 Hz screw-type socket.

Which bulb wattage range should I choose for reliable operation with these sensors?

Use standard incandescent bulbs from 60 to 150 watts maximum; the sensor is rated for up to 100 watts, so select bulbs within that overlap for consistent dusk-to-dawn switching.
