Whether you are using a interruptor com sensor de movimento<\/a>, an sensor de presen\u00e7a<\/a>, or a motion sensor light<\/a>, they are all for the same purpose to automatically handle the light\u2019s ON and OFF for you, and they all work in a very similar way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During our daily usage, the motion sensor lights might run into some problems, which might cause noticeable inconvenience to us. Unlike regular light switches, which are mechanical and manual controlled that are very durable and stable, the motion sensor light switches contain electric components such as the motion sensor<\/a> and IC circuits for controlling the light, which is more fragile to external sources like man-made mistakes and power surges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But don\u2019t worry, the motion sensor light switches can be highly durable as well, especially the PIR motion sensor based switches. Most of the time, the problems are caused due to improper man-made adjustments that look like a fault or error but can be quickly fixed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this guide, we are going to explain why your motion sensor lights keep coming on and won\u2019t turn off. Whether you are using a motion sensor light switch, an individual occupancy motion sensor, or a motion sensor light such as night lights or strip lights, you can all refer to this guide because the causes and symptoms are somehow identical.<\/p>\n\n\n
Problem Happens After First Installation <\/h2>\n\n\n
When your motion sensor lights keep coming on and won\u2019t turn off happens after the initial installation, it\u2019s usually because of a lack of proper adjustment to the motion sensor<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Possible reasons might include:<\/p>\n\n\n
People Near the Motion Sensor<\/h3>\n\n\n
A common misunderstanding of a PIR motion sensor, which is the most widely used type of sensor, is that a PIR motion sensor does not literally detect you by movement or \u201cmotion\u201d but detects your presence by the heat\/infrared emitted from your warm body. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ve seen quite a few people testing the motion sensor by standing aside, waiting for the light to turn off and complaining the lights keep on without turning off. It\u2019s highly possible that the motion sensor can still detect you with its wide 180 degrees of detection range. Sometimes, your body heat can reflect from mirrors and still be seen by the motion sensor even when you\u2019re standing behind the sensor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Solution<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
To test the motion sensor light\u2019s functionality, you should leave the interior room or stay far away from the motion sensor to ensure it cannot detect your body heat completely.<\/p>\n\n\n
Motion Sensor Faces Wrong Direction<\/h3>\n\n\n
Another common mistake causing this problem is that people do not adjust the motion sensor after installation. Whether a motion sensor light switch on the wall, an occupancy sensor on the ceiling or a motion sensor light with the motion sensor built-in, it\u2019s the same component- PIR motion sensor- that detects motion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The PIR motion sensor\u2019s detection range is fan-shape, 150 to 180 degrees wide and with a detection distance from 10 to 30 feet. So it\u2019s crucial to adjust the motion sensor\u2019s detection window, or known as the lens, to face and points right to the detection area, such as your front door or pathway. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
When the motion sensor is not facing the right direction, it might be able to collect the signal from all possible sources such as your dogs and cats, HVAC or the hot wind from your window, which may all trigger a PIR motion sensor as a valid \u201cmotion\u201d to keep the light on.<\/p>\n
