Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Combining two halogen flood lights with a programmable motion sensor--all in one durable design, this Heath/Zenith SL-5318-WH-D outdoor light works well over a garage door, on the side of a home, or other area in need of enhanced security. The light's sensor detects motion up to 70 feet (sensitivity can be adjusted), while its pulse-count technology helps prevent false triggering from wind and rain, so only substantial motion is detected, like people and animals. Set the timer to indicate how long the lights should stay on after motion stops, or manually turn the lights on or off at any time with the flip of an indoor switch. In addition to providing maximum flood-light illumination with the motion sensor, the security light can also be used for low-level accent lighting thanks to its DualBrite technology. An integrated timer makes it easy to program the light to go on for three or six hours--or from dusk until dawn. Other highlights include a convenient daytime test mode, a photocell sensor that automatically deactivates the unit during daylight hours, and heavy-duty die-cast metal construction for long-lasting performance from one season to the next. The motion-activated security light uses two 120-watt halogen bulbs and measures approximately 8-2/5 inches long by 9-4/5 inches wide by 5-3/5 inches tall and carries a 10-year limited warranty.
Enjoy sounds, styles, and finishes that elegantly reflect the distinct personality of your home with indoor and outdoor products from Heath/Zenith. The company provides fashion-forward lighting solutions that strive to complement any decor, both cozy and contemporary alike, plus their products are easy to install, making it a snap to quickly add enhanced safety, convenience, and security. Choose from a broad selection of door chimes, motion-sensor security lights, decorative outdoor light fixtures, wireless lighting controls, and more.

"I purchased three of these units and within one year two of the three had failed. The flood lights do not come on when sensing motion at night, but the motion detector light indicates motion is sensed. The flood lights will come on in the test mode but won't come on in normal mode. I believe the daylight sensor has gone bad and the units cannot tell that nightime has come. I was not able to locate a web site for this company for support or warranty information."

I've only had this for 2 weeks but i'm quite satisfied with the end result. I've read the reviews on other security lights being too sensitive and ect...but like most, you still have to tinker with it to find the proper sensitivity level you will need.
Upon opening the box, i was glad that most of the unit was made out of metal and not plastic so you know it could withstand the different weather elements. Installing it was very simple and the instructions were clear.
The sensitivity level is easily adjusted by turning a rotary disc on the bottom of the unit ranging from min to max to a boost. I find the boost very sensitve as i could never find the proper setting to suit my needs so i keep it on max. You can also adjust the sensor eye to aim more left, right, down or up depending on which area you want to cover the most. And don't forget, it is 240 degrees of coverage compared to 180 others offer.
There are 3 pre-programmed timers for which this unit will stay on upon sensoring motion. 1, 5 and 20 minutes. I have set mine for 1 minute which is more than enough time to scare someone way from your property. Remember, depending on the wattages of your bulbs which are not included, you don't want to increase your electric bill either. I found 240 total watts to be sufficient for me and it does include protective metal lamp covers.
The unit also has a timed low-level lighting for anyone who wishes to have it on for 3 hrs, 6 hrs or dusk to dawn but as soon as motion is detected, they're on high. I probably won't ever use this as it defeats the purpose of scaring someone off your property as in my case, people who walk their dogs but don't clean up behind them.
Overall, you'll be satisfied with this unit as long as you have some patience while finding your desired sensitivity setting. I can't tell you how many times i had to go out in the middle of the night to adjust it to where i was satisfied.
**UPDATE** (5-10-08)
Had the first windy day since acquiring the unit and i'm going to drop a star from the rating because i could not adjust the sensitivity level to the point where the light would shut off. Not sure if it was sensing bug activity around the sensor or if it was the wind but it got to the point where i had to shut it down from the inside and try to adjust it the next day. This is unacceptable in my book.

Amazon Verified Purchase
For the price this item is unbeatable.
It really has as a wide and long detection range as advertised and it worked pretty reliably since i've installed it more than a month ago.
The only one note i would make is that the manual does not stress enough the importance of pointing the light beams (or even their reflections) away from anywhere close to the motion detection sensor. I've found that out at my expenses cause a reflection of the light on the wall kept setting the motion detection off and the whole thing would keep flashing like an emergency light until i've figured that one out and solved the problem just by pointing the light on a different direction.

If you want a blinking light this is for you, but who wants that? With a 150 watt bulb in each socket, this thing cycles, blinking on and off every few minutes. Read more

faulty sensor
Every time a bulb burns out, then new bulb installed, the lights stay on high at all times, instead of dim mode when no motion detected. Happened to both lights.
