Can I swap my regular light bulbs with these motion sensor light bulbs and do I need to do anything else besides unscrewing the old ones and screwing the new motion ones? I have 3 regular lights in front of garage in driveway that are control by a light switch which I forget to turn off all the time during the day. Will the light switch still work with the motion sensor light bulbs?
Hi David, since the bulb turns off automatically by the sensor inside of it, it's not illuminated during the day only once it gets dark. that's what I really liked about this bulb, is I don't have to think about turning it on and off, it does it automatically.
@@TinkerForward Let me rephrase my question. How many watts are burning while the light switch is on and the bulb is not lit? I purchased two of these bulbs about a month ago and they are convenient.
Mine says it has an LED radar sensor, it only turns on when somebody is present, for about 30 seconds, it is model number RSB-001, yours does not have this? Or am I reading what it does in correctly?
Hi kancocorp, no my bulb did not have an LED radar sensor. My light bulb turns on when the sensor detects its dark enough outside and then turns the bulb back off when it detects its light outside once again.
im buying this today
Dusk to dawn light bulbs 🤟

I think you could also do with an upgrade in that outdoor light fixture.
Yes! I’m planning to switch out the fixture in the near future. It might become another tinker forward video!
What for? It does the job more efficiently than some fancy fixture that will have some sort of surround blocking some light
Nice review
Do you have to keep your light switch on?
Yes. That's the only way it will work
In the hallway of my apartment building the light flickers outside is this dangerous?
Thanks
My question is how many watts are you burning during daylight hours (while the light switch is on and the bulb is illuminating)

David Yarborough Should be close to zero I think.
At dusk when the sensor detects darkness ,it turns the bulb on. How come the sensor doesnt detect the light from the bulb and then shut itself off ??
It knows the diff between sunlight and a lightbulb.

CFLs can reach 180F - not a safe temperatue to touch
Bulb Can Automatic ON/OFF?
Yes with the built in daylight/nighttime sensor. It works great!
