How to Bypass the Motion Sensor on a LED Floodlight
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 жов 2018
- Ever wondered if you can convert your motion detector enabled LED floodlight so you can turn it on or off with only a wall switch? More often than not, you can.
Please do not try to replicate any steps on this video unless you are skilled enough to solder or to deal with mains wiring. This poses a severe electrocution (and maybe even death) risk and if it sounds too hard, then you shouldn't really try it. Ask for help at your nearby electronics repair shop.
Ok how about the auto on/off timer ? This also disconnect it to staying on ?
Great video, your English is very good and I fully understood everything. A very helpful clear video, thank you.
Fantastic video, thanks, exactly what I needed. I have bought a light similar to yours and unfortunately discovered the PIR could not be turned off. Off to my soldering iron!
Perfect explanation, I just did connect brown and red cable which goes in sensor and back, and it works perfectly all the time. Thank you for sharing very simple video in which you can learn, and Big like and Subscribe!
Very helpful video, thank you
excellent video you vey well explained
Great video. Thanx!
Great video, I was trying to bypass the Hampton Bay solar spotlight sensor, any idea how? There is no wire just a simple circuit board. The light comes on only at the night, I want to bypass this sensor.
Hi, great video. Does this apply to solar security lights too..I wish they would just make them dusk till dawn.
Hi, thank you very much. I'd say some might be modded to do so, if they are equipped with LDRs and there's a way to bypass the motion detection. However, from the lights I've seen so far, the motion detection modules have the LDRs in them, so they don't light up during daytime, hence it might be a bit more complicated to bypass all these features. Sorry I can't be of much help. Cheers.
I want my light to stay on permanently during the night. It has a Motion Sensor and timer will removing the motion sensor allow it to stay on permanently??? Or does the timer need to be removed
wow that's a mission! ...better off just buying a floodlight that doesn't have a sensor!
I assure you it's not hard at all! I did, however, spent a lot of time unscrewing screws, which I guess made the video too long. I'll try to do it better in future videos.
The basic premise is: cut wires from the motion sensor, and solder the live (L) and neutral (N) wires to the corresponding holes in the power supply. If I knew for sure that I wouldn't be needing the motion sensing feature in the future, I'd go straight to the point.
Thanks for your comment! Cheers.
why didnt use wire nuts instead of soldering to power the light?
Thank you for your comment! The wires were already soldered to the LED power supply, so I just removed the previous wiring and soldered the mains input directly to the power supply. I wanted to have the option to go back and use the motion sensor if I needed to, so instead of cutting wires and using wire nuts, I just soldered them. Hope this clears things out. Cheers!
What if you want to use both? Detector ànd switch ;-)
Hey Gunter, see if your motion sensor has an override:
If you turn the switch to the floodlight off and on within a second or so, the light should stay on.
To go back to normal operation, turn the switch off and wait about 10 seconds or more before turning it back on.
Can you remove the sensor and add a switch?
Yes, you can! Look at 7:35, you can add a mains rated switch between the brown wire and the hole that it goes into on the circuit board.
@@nunogarcia9446 thanks for that.
I have bypassed the sensor but the problem is every time I turn on the switch there is a 4 second delay for the lights to come on. any suggestion?
Turn in on 4 seconds in advance
Why buy a lamp with a sensor?
Mainly because it was actually cheaper with the sensor rather than without. I could have gotten a cheaper one without CE/FCC/TUV certification, but when it comes to electrical appliances and fixtures I do not like to play with fire - quite literally.
I've bought a cheap 50W projector from AliExpress for about $5 on sale, and it's about what you'd expect: sheet metal heatsink, and the ground lead connects to nothing but thin air.
Thanks for your comment, best regards.

@@nunogarcia9446 OK you like playing with electronics; I do too but, some just don't know their resistor from their capacitor. I was thinking about those. So for them, your video was enlighting. Regards.
