What Customers Are Saying
The product has a light sensor that frequently flickers, turns on and off erratically, or fails to properly turn the lights on at dusk and off at dawn as intended. Many customers report the sensor being overly sensitive, causing the lights to cycle on and off constantly even in daylight. Several reviewers also mention poor build quality and difficulty contacting the manufacturer for support.

Doesn't Work
Would Not RecommendMy Woods Pro Dusk to Dawn Light Control has never worked. I can't return it because I only kept part of the packaging, although it shows the name of the product, and I have the receipt. My previous light sensor, in my carport, worked for years, but was damaged by the last hurricane. It was so reliable, it never occurred to me that the Woods product would be so bad. I can't find any way to reach the company to complain !!! Don't buy this product.

Faulty sensors
Would Not RecommendAfter one night It was easy to see that these sensors are ineffective and faulty. They constantly go on for a short time, go off for a while and come back on all night. Worse yet, is that they stay on during daylight hours. Forget about it!!

Can't tell if it is night
Would Not RecommendI ended it not using it, because every time the light turned on, it triggered the light sensor to turn it off again. I put the longest tube on, hoping that the light from the lightbulb wouldn't make the sensor think it was dawn, but it still turned on and off all night long. What a waste. And I had to destroy the packaging to get it out, so I didn't feel it was worth it to return.
