Q: What kind of energy savings can I expect from using a photo sensor?

A: Photo sensors are a fantastic way to conserve energy. By ensuring your lights are only on when needed – during darkness – you avoid the waste of leaving them on during daylight hours, contributing to a more eco-friendly and efficient lighting system.

Q: Are photo sensors compatible with different types of light bulbs, such as LEDs?

A: Absolutely! Photo sensors are generally compatible with a wide range of light bulbs, including energy-efficient LEDs, incandescent bulbs, and CFLs. This flexibility allows you to choose the bulbs that best suit your lighting needs and preferences. While compatibility is broad, we always recommend referring to the specific product documentation or consulting with a qualified professional electrician for optimal performance and safety.
