    So far I only have one of the 5 up. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxOXxsTZ3ptV_Pk0fFl8bNZvVqeoqBQFwe My son ran out of time, with motion detector etc. I have it over my garage door. It works great. Have seen a couple of cats, my dogs, when I am out front. And had a bee buzzing around right in front of it. It works very well. It even shows the neighbour's driveway, but only shows movement just past my own, which is very long. I highly recommend them.

    Don’t trust the test button, you could have a malfunction on the light but still have voltage on your wires. It’s best to use a voltage tester to ensure the absence of voltage before you begin working on replacing the light

    If you're trying to install the Ring Floodlight cam (model # 2210C-XYZ) with a 5" base and you need a junction box for it, you'll discover that round junction boxes with 5" diameters are very difficult to find. The large majority of them are 4".
    I finally found one that'll fit. It's the Grainger Surface mount wiring box, 5", White (model # 14G265).
    But, bear in mind that Grainger has really odd hours. They close at 4 pm on weekdays, and they are closed all day Sat and Sun.

    Where's the white backplate from? I have a rectangular flood light backing onto the house (brick). Instead of having to cut out a whole, I'd like to use one of those plates and just have the wiring come through and put the circular backplate over that.

    When putting stranded wires to solid wires you don’t twist the wires together rather you put the stranded wire slightly higher/longer then the solid wire then use the wire nuts as normal and you will find it makes a way better connection it helps to twits the stranded wire by it’s self to tighten the strands together

    My flood light is being set off by car lights driving by. WHat setting do I need to change to stop this happening yet not loose the sensitivity that would pick up a person (for example)? Just putting it out there that the LACK of information to set up the boundaries, sensitivity etc that comes witht these products is enough for me not to purchase another one 🤦‍♀🤦‍♀🤦‍♀🤦‍♀. Thank you in advance for any help you can offer to fix my problem.
