Installation
Your BesLowe motion sensor outdoor wall light arrives pre-assembled with all necessary mounting accessories for straightforward installation. Follow these general steps:
- Turn off Power: Before beginning installation, ensure the power supply to the light fixture is turned off at the circuit breaker.
- Mount the Bracket: Attach the provided mounting bracket to your electrical junction box on the wall. Ensure it is securely fastened.
- Connect Wiring: Connect the fixture's wires to your household wiring. Typically, this involves connecting the live (black) wire, neutral (white) wire, and ground (green/bare copper) wire. Use wire nuts to secure connections.
- Attach Fixture: Carefully align the light fixture with the mounting bracket and secure it using the provided screws.
- Install Bulb: Insert an E26 base bulb (100W Max) into the socket. Dimmable LED bulbs or incandescent bulbs are recommended for optimal performance with the Dual-bright mode. The open-bottom design allows for easy bulb replacement.
- Restore Power: Once the fixture is securely installed and the bulb is in place, restore power at the circuit breaker.
Operating Modes
Your BesLowe outdoor wall light features an advanced PIR motion sensor and photocell sensor, offering three distinct lighting modes. You can effortlessly switch between modes with a simple click on the sensor button located on the fixture.
1. Dual-bright Mode (Ideal for Security)
- Daytime: Light remains off.
- Nighttime (No Motion): Light turns on at a low brightness (default 40%, adjustable from 15-50%).
- Nighttime (Motion Detected): Brightness increases to 100% when motion is detected.
- After Motion: Returns to low brightness after no motion is detected.
2. ON/OFF Mode (Energy Saving)
- Daytime: Light remains off.
- Nighttime (No Motion): Light remains off.
- Nighttime (Motion Detected): Light turns on at 100% brightness when motion is detected.
- After Motion: Light turns off again after no motion is detected.
3. Manual Override Mode (For Events)
- Activation: To activate, turn the wall switch "on-off-on" within 2 seconds.
- Operation: The light stays at 100% brightness for 6-8 hours, regardless of motion.
- Deactivation: Automatically turns off at dawn and reverts to either Dual-bright or ON/OFF mode.
Adjusting Brightness in Dual-bright Mode
In Dual-bright mode, the low brightness level (when no motion is detected at night) can be adjusted. To do this, long-press the small button located near the motion sensor on the top of the fixture. You can adjust the brightness from 15% to 50% of full brightness. The default setting is 40%.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: To clean the fixture, ensure power is off. Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Bulb Replacement: The open-bottom design allows for easy access to the bulb. Ensure power is off before replacing the bulb. Use only E26 base bulbs, not exceeding 100W.
- Weather Resistance: The fixture is designed to be all-weather resistant (waterproof, heat-resistant, storm-resistant, snow-protected). Regular inspection for any damage is recommended to maintain its integrity.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on | No power; faulty bulb; incorrect wiring | Check circuit breaker; replace bulb; verify wiring connections. |
| Motion sensor not working | Sensor obstructed; incorrect mode setting | Clear obstructions; ensure correct operating mode is selected. |
| Light stays on constantly | Manual Override mode active; continuous motion detected | Check mode setting; ensure no constant motion in sensor range. |
| Brightness not adjusting | Not in Dual-bright mode; non-dimmable bulb | Switch to Dual-bright mode; use a dimmable LED or incandescent bulb. |
