The LED lights without heating up, the sensor avoids leaving the light on all night, and the housing is designed to withstand the weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree elements sit together in the same housing. The outdoor housing, usually aluminium, protects the electronics and is fixed to a wall, a post or into masonry. The LED source does the lighting work, with no filament and no bulb to change. The sensor, a passive infrared detector, picks up a moving heat variation in its field. What this type of light changes in an ordinary evening is simple: you arrive with your hands full, and the light is already on. The rest of the time, it is off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOutdoor LED security lights with motion sensor: how the sensor triggers the light\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sensor constantly scans the scene it faces. When a person enters its field, it compares the heat it picks up against the background of the scene and switches the light on immediately. The light then stays on for the set duration after the last movement detected, then goes out. Two settings matter: sensitivity, which decides how easily it triggers, and the time delay, which decides how long it stays on. Both are usually found on the housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOutdoor LED security light or floodlight with sensor: what is the difference?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe family of outdoor LED security lights covers very different formats, from a small discreet housing that marks the threshold to a wide floodlight that floods a courtyard. The small format blends into the facade and lights a person, not a plot of land. The wide format covers a whole driveway but dazzles more easily.

At the entrance, you want a tight field and light that falls in front of the door, not in the visitor's eyes.

This is the typical case for a surface-mounted housing, with a protection rating consistent with that exposure. Along a facade, a model recessed into the wall gives a clean finish, with no visible housing: see the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/spots-d-exterieur-encastrables\"\u003erecessed outdoor lights\u003c\/a\u003e and, if you want to adjust the angle despite the recess, the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/spots-d-exterieur-encastrables-orientables\"\u003emodels that are both recessed and adjustable\u003c\/a\u003e.

Colour and material are chosen afterwards, in keeping with the facade. The product page states these values for each reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe order of reading matters because the criteria do not carry the same weight. A poorly protected housing will fail before the electronics. A badly sized sensor will trigger for anything and everything, and you will unplug it within a week. Light output comes last, not because it is secondary, but because it is easy to correct: a warm tone around 2700 to 3000 K brings out stone and render, a more neutral tone around 4000 K gives a whiter light on a path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIP protection rating: the criterion to read first\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IP rating describes the housing's resistance to dust and water. Outdoors, a housing sheltered under a canopy and a housing battered by rain do not have the same needs, and the product page always states the rating chosen. Remember the logic rather than the number: the more exposed the light, the higher the rating must be. A light placed at sprinkler height or on a west-facing facade deserves greater protection than one tucked under an overhang.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAngle, range and time delay settings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe detection angle is the width of the monitored field, the range is the distance at which movement is picked up. A door threshold is satisfied with a narrow field; a driveway needs a wider one. An area that is too large triggers for vehicles, animals and branches. The time delay sets how long the light stays on after the last movement: short for a passage, longer for an entrance where you look for your keys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhite or black colour: matching the light to the facade\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn light render, a white housing disappears; on dark cladding, it is black that fades away. \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/spots-d-exterieur-led-coloris-blanc\"\u003eWhite finishes for a light facade\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/spots-d-exterieur-coloris-noir\"\u003eblack housings on dark cladding\u003c\/a\u003e cover the two most common cases.
