Choosing the best sensor lights for your business

When buying a sensor light it’s best understand the circumstances and conditions you need the light to work within as there’s a lot of subtle differences between sensor lights that make one more suitable than the other.

Some of following features should be considered closely when choosing the right industrial sensor light.

• How energy efficient is the light? Does it offer up to 93% savings?
• Is the sensor light approved for government rebate schemes such as IPART, VEET & REES approved for rebates in NSW, VIC & SA
• Ease of installation and maintenance. Can maintenance be performed by a handyman without isolating power?
• What’s the range of the motion sensor
• Ability to adjust standby modes and daylight settings ensuring the lights are not activated by the motion sensor when daylight is detected but instead remains on standby mode.
• Does the industrial sensor light use high performance LUMILEDS lights and LiFePO4 battery
• Does the light have emergency and non emergency options available
• Is the sensor light suitable for indoor and outdoor use and is it waterproof rated
• The warranty period
