This smart device is perfect for areas like hallways, utility rooms, or stairwells where lights are often accidentally left on, helping you reduce electricity consumption and eliminate the need to fumble for a switch.
We have used several Timeguard products over the years, and have found them to be very durable and reliable.
However, it has to be said that the designers of this particular product have distinctly lacked the advantage of 'user experience'.
The slide switch on one side of the device is most awkward to use, lacks a clearly defined 'mid position', and worst of all, any sensor adjustment requires unscrewing the latched battery cover, resulting in the unretained battery falling out of its cradle ! To obviate this, we were obliged to mount the unit upside down. This sort of design should not be released for sale in the twenty first century. Hopefully Timeguard will look at this product again and isssue a revised version soon.
Old switch obsolete and this switch is perfect for this room.
Original switch faulty after 15yrs in operation and I had difficulty locating similar .found one on eBay with manual on/off or auto setting for lux setting from total dark to almost daylight this could then be set from 5sec
to 15 minutes ideal for the room I wanted to illuminate.
This switch is solid, takes no box space behind it and does exactly what it's supposed to do. Have tried cheaper versions and this is so much better and well worth paying slightly more for.
