Flenvenne Motion Sensor - White

The Flenvenne Motion Sensor is a compact white detector that picks up movement within its view. A frosted lens sits on the front of a rounded plastic body. A threaded swivel arm on one side lets you turn it towards the area you want watched, and three adjustment dials are set into its base. It measures 6cm long, 6.2cm wide and 4.4cm high and weighs just 0.04KG, so it sits neatly without drawing the eye. It runs on a 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains supply. Its IP65 rating means it is sealed against dust and protected from jets of water, so it can live outdoors on a house wall or in a garden and stand up to rain.

With a 120° detection angle it covers a wide sweep, so a single sensor can keep watch over a front path, a driveway or the patio beside a back door. The light level setting runs from 5 to 2000 lux. That lets you choose how dark it must be before the sensor responds: only once night has properly fallen, or earlier as the evening light fades. That suits anyone who wants comings and goings at the door picked up after dark, without a hand on a switch. The clean white finish sits comfortably against white render, pale brickwork or white window frames.

Plastic does not rust, which counts for a lot on a wall that faces the weather year after year. The swivel arm means you are not stuck with the angle of the wall: the sensor can be turned to aim along a path rather than straight out across the street. As a mains device it is installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions come as a download. Once it is fitted, take a moment to aim the lens so the area you use most falls squarely within its 120° view.
