What Customers Are Saying

Most customers report the dusk-to-dawn sensor fails to function reliably, staying on continuously, flickering erratically, or not activating at all despite following instructions. Reviewers describe the photocell as overly sensitive and unresponsive to ambient light levels, even with provided shielding. Many note the light remains on in bright daylight or cycles unpredictably every few minutes. Some mention design flaws like the socket stem interfering with bulbs. A small number report success after careful placement or adjustment, but these cases are rare and require technical knowledge most users lack.

Doesn't Work

Would Not Recommend

Supposed to turn on when it is dark and turn off when the sun shines. Sometimes it works, but mostly it doesn't. Mostly dark at night; sometimes shines when the sun is already shining.
