Outside Lighting

Post by Romac »

Soon I need to buy new lighting for around the house. At the moment fixtures are installed with sensors but both are broken. Of course I can buy the same again with sensor with the advantage that they switch on in the dark when there is movement. But this is not very "domotica like". I can can buy a standard fixture and switch the light on at sunset of and off at sunrise or use a light sensor maybe in combination with a separate PIR. Maybe also motion direction through a camera is an option.

I wonder what other members on this forum have done.

As soon as i need to replace a switch it will be replaced with a z-wave unit. (Duwi for the complete unit, of a Fibaro with an aditional Bush Jaeger unit)

After that you can use any trigger to switch on or off the light, you can use motion on camera, magnetic reed contact, seperate motion sensor, smoke detector, incomming phone call, doorbell ring and so on
