30W IP65 CCT Adjustable PIR Sensor Floodlight - Black

This is a 30W LED floodlight with a passive infrared sensor built into the head, so the light comes on when movement crosses the detection area rather than burning all evening. The LED array is integrated, which means there is no separate lamp to buy or replace over the life of the fitting: the board sits inside the black housing behind a flat front lens. It is CCT adjustable, so the white tone is set on the fitting rather than fixed at the factory, and it is rated IP65 against dust and against water jets.

A floodlight this size suits the jobs around a house that need light quickly and only for a few minutes: a driveway, a side passage, the path between a back door and a bin store, or the front of a garage or workshop. The stirrup bracket carries slotted fixing holes and is bolted through at both sides, so the tilt can be set after the wall fixings are in and the beam aimed down onto the ground rather than across a neighbour's window. Mount it high enough that the sensor looks along the area you want covered, and the light follows.

Adjustable colour temperature is worth thinking about before the fitting goes up. Warm white reads softer against brick and render; cooler white looks brighter to the eye at the same wattage and tends to be picked for yards, workshop doors and parking areas. At 30W this is a mid-sized floodlight for domestic and light commercial work rather than for lighting a whole car park. Three small adjusters sit beneath the sensor head. The manufacturer does not publish the lumen output, the beam angle or the detection range, so plan the mounting height around the ground you want lit rather than around a figure.

What does CCT adjustable mean on a floodlight?

It means the white tone is chosen on the fitting rather than being fixed, so one unit covers warm white through to cool white without buying a different model.

Does the light stay on once the sensor has triggered?

A passive infrared sensor switches the light on when it detects movement and off again after a set interval, so it runs in short bursts rather than all night.

Is there a bulb to change when the light fails?

No. The LED board is built into the floodlight, so the fitting is replaced as a whole rather than relamped when it reaches the end of its life.

Can I fit it under a soffit or on a fence post?

The bracket has slotted fixing holes and tilts at both sides, so it can go on a wall, a soffit or a solid post provided the fixings suit the substrate.

Is this floodlight dimmable?

The manufacturer does not state whether it can be dimmed, so we make no claim either way. A sensor floodlight is normally switched by the sensor rather than a dimmer.
