5.0 out of 5 stars Best security light ever!, December 7, 2009

This review is from: Heath Zenith SL-5630-BZ-D 180 Degree Halogen Motion Sensing Security Light, Bronze (Tools & Home Improvement)

I now have 4 of these lighting areas around my house. I had been using cheaper lights that didn't have the low-high motion detector settings, and they just didn't last. Finally started using these 6 years ago. Should have done that long before. So far I have changed 2 bulbs in 6 years, with one only lasting 4 years. These have paid for themselves in savings on electricity and just working faithfully for years! When I think back to those other lamps I was using, and having to replace them every year or two, these are a dream come true! I used my ladder to mount two on the back of the house 3 years ago, and I haven't been on a ladder for lighting since! Durable, efficient, and fairly easy to install and set up. I would recommend using a hookup that is controlled by a light switch, just in case you have to replace a bulb in a few years.

This light is great. It does two things I wanted - it has a high/low setting so there is dim light around the door at all times (enough when your eyes are used to the dark) and it has a motion detector to increases the brightness when motion is detected. It does use a weird sized halogen bulb, but it should last a while.

I have a few minor complaints about this light. First, the mounting bracket it came with is kinda flimsy and didn't perfectly mate with the electrical box into which I needed it to screw. I'm not sure if the box was an odd size, but the bracket wasn't "universal." Second, as some other reviewers have mentioned, the finish isn't exactly "bronze." It's more "grayish brown plastic." While it does include some metal components, the main body of this fixture is plastic. Not exactly what you think when you see something advertised as "bronze." The only other thing is that I was somehow expecting the light to be brighter than it is. Don't get me wrong, it's just as bright as any 100W lamp, but the fact that it's a halogen doesn't mean anything special in terms of brightness.

That said, I got the thing up and in place in about 20 minutes, including the time necessary to remove my old fixture. I don't even think about the porch light anymore. It's on half-brightness when it's dark outside and goes to full power when I go out after dark. It therefore does exactly what it's supposed to.

I give it three stars not because it's not good, but because it's just average.
