The First Choice Lighting Carlton Outdoor Motion Sensor Wall Light is ideal for homeowners looking to enhance exterior security and convenience in spaces like garages, patios, and porches. Its standout feature is the reliable integrated PIR motion sensor that automates lighting based on movement, though users should note it requires a specific E27 LED bulb that is not included in the box. This sleek, weather-resistant fixture combines a functional design with customizable sensitivity and timing controls, making it a robust solution for illuminating dark corners of your property.

No, the light requires an E27 ES LED bulb (15W max), which must be purchased separately.
Yes, it is compatible with most standard domestic smart E27 light bulbs.
IP44 indicates that the light is protected against solid objects over 1mm and is resistant to splashing water from all directions, making it safe for outdoor use.
You can adjust the timer (10s to 5m) and the lux threshold (0-20 lux), but the PIR detection angle is fixed at 90 degrees.
While IP44 rated for rain, please ensure the fixture is installed in a sheltered location if living in a high-salt or extremely exposed coastal environment to preserve the silver finish.
Adjust the lux dial to a lower setting or verify that the timer is not set to an unusually long duration.
Ensure the light bulb is properly seated and functional. Check that the sensor lens is clean and the lux setting is appropriate for the current ambient light levels.
Check for moving objects within the 8-meter detection range, such as swaying tree branches or pets, and consider re-angling the sensor.
As a Class I earthed product, this fixture must be properly connected to your home's electrical earth. Ensure the power is completely isolated at the consumer unit before beginning installation. The unit is designed for standard E27 ES bulbs with a 15W maximum limit; avoid using incandescent bulbs that exceed this wattage to prevent overheating. For maintenance, periodically wipe the sensor lens with a dry, soft cloth to remove dust or spiderwebs, as these can trigger false activation. The fixture is rated for use in temperatures as low as -20 degrees Celsius, making it suitable for most climates.
