can i use this with a regular light running off my homes 120v? I would like to be able to use this to modify my current porch light to be motion acti

No, the working voltage is 12v.But plenty of similar devices that run on house hold current.. I have several and they work fine.

This is for 12v and not for house current. You'd be better off getting a motion sensor at a Home Depot.

Yes you can use it as a normal light switch, however; you must be sure that the panel is set to auto once you manually turn the light off again...., as long as the panel reads "auto" you're good to go. ( the panel is the little window on the switch itself that allows you to view and know what mode of operation the switch is in)

If it is an outdoor bulb, yes, it will work no differently. The motion detector simply switches on/off, but the bulb is not part of the equation. ANy outdoor bulb will work if it screws into the socket.

Not sure i understand your question. The setup you describe is what this product is designed to do. I setup my exterior light that way. It works great. For an interior light not sure why you want this setup. Isn't there a motion light switch that can do something similar.

Absolutely NOT!! This light is a 12 volt DC unit. Household voltage is 115-130 volts and would fry this light resulting in a lot of smoke and crackles. Unless you have a 12 volt power supply that will rectify or convert the household voltage to 12 volt DC.

This transformer converts 120 volts AC to 12v DC . It output ampage is very low. This will not work for what you are attempting to do. With out looking at your 220 volt lights its hard tp be exact. But if you can find a 120 volt bulb that fits the light and make sure its connected to a 120volt source it will work fine. If they came with a 240volt plug. You will have to change it to a 120volt plug . I hope this helps

No. This switch is intended as a low-voltage, low-current alarm sensor. I can't tell you the exact limitations, but the wires coming out of the switch are extremely small. Be sure whatever switch you eventually use is explicitly rated 120/240 VAC and has a power (wattage or amperage) rating that exceeds whatever load (light?) that will be powered. In fact, I would recommend that you also use an in-line fuse, rated to the switch, if there is any chance that someone will put in a bigger bulb than you intended.

I used mine for led porch lights. I just replaced my old light fixture with it.

I am not certain about this. I use it only for my porch and outside garage lights. Sorry; I wish I could have been of more help.

I can't see why not if you have a AC to a DC converter. Don't rely on the mounting gasket, it can leak real bad. Use plenty of silicone. The light is very bright and the movement range is great!

Yes, you can. These lights come with their own transformer, just connect to a 110 volt source, they work great!!

Jim,Based on the design observed, there maybe a question on whether the motion sensor output is compatible with the LED power supply in the flood light. The motion sensor output switch may be solid state and may not be able to control the power supply correctly based on the current draw and power factor of the LED power supply. You need to check with the motion sensor manufacturer to determine if it is able to handle the LED light load. Unfortunately there is little technical information available for the LED lamp.

I don't see why you can't do that. You'll have to use like and end of an extension cord because these lights have a power pack which converts them from 110vac to dc

This unit replaces a normal light switch and is rated for 20 amps, so you should have no problem using it for a fireplace. We are very happy with ours. It controls our porch light from over 200' away.

No it will not work with 220v circuit. All standard household lights in U.S. require 120v circuit with a neutral/ground wire.

I use an Insteon Home Automation dimmer but like G. Perry said, I think any 120v dimmer will work with this light.

I don't know what kind of light you have in mind, but the typical household light switch for lighting circuits is rated at equal, if not less amps, usually 15-20 amps. Unless you are using it for some higher output lamp, it should work fine. Remember, watts divided by volts equals amps. For instance, if you are operating a 75 watt bulb under a 120 volt circuit, you would determine the amps as 75/120 = .625 amps. If you are operating more than one bulb, be sure to add up all of the bulb wattages before you do the math. This switch is rated at 20 amps, so don't go over the rated amperage. The screw portion of the switch is right at 7/16 in. Be careful and good luck.
