Description
The Granvena is a compact motion sensor in black, a square plastic housing with softly rounded corners and a white half-dome lens set into its lower edge. It measures 10cm wide and 10cm high and stands 5cm proud of the wall, so it sits neatly beside a door or under the eaves without drawing the eye. Its IP44 rating means it is protected from splashing water, which settles the main question: it can live outdoors on a house wall, rain and all.
We see it most at home by a front door, along a side passage or at the corner of a garden wall, anywhere you would rather movement did the switching than reach for a switch in the dark. Corner mounting is possible, so it can go where two walls meet, a handy option when a flat stretch of wall is not available where you need it. It works indoors just as well, in a porch, a garage or a utility room. The black finish sits comfortably alongside dark wall lights and door furniture, and against pale render it reads as a small, tidy square.
The body is plastic, and plastic does not rust, which suits a wall that takes the weather. The black surface carries a fine vertical grain you notice at close quarters. The housing is built in two parts, a larger upper section over a slimmer band that frames the faceted lens, which keeps the front clean and simple. Packed, it weighs 0.191KG. The installation instructions come as a download, and they are worth reading before you settle on its position.
