Legal

  • 2020 NEC addresses, specifically, other than hardwired control devices such as remote control switches - [1]
  • The intent of the NEC is that the control device be listed.

Listed Motion Lights, Sensors, and Bulbs

  • Check.pngUL Listed sensor only - $10 - [2]
  • Check.pngUL listed yes! - $28 - [3]. $18 - [4]
  • Flood light [5]
  • There are bulbs, but with small detection range? [6]
  • ETL motion sensor - [7]
  • Motion sensor with socket [8]
  • Motion sensor 3 way switch. But still requires funky wiring - you just don't need to touch it. [9]

Not Listed

  • Check.pngAmazon [10]
  • Check.pngBulb socket - [11]
  • Not listed 120 degree, 10 minute time - [12]

3 Way Switch Sourcing

  • Check.png$190 - [13]
  • Check.pngCheapo kinetic, no batteries - [14]
  • Check.pngCheapo kinetic - [15]
  • Cheapo ones with batteries - [16]

1 Way Kinetic

Another Way

  • Another way to implement is by motion sensor lights.
  • Solar motion sensor light - good for decks - 4000 lumen - [18]
  • 450 Lumen light - [19]

Howto

  • Runlesswire - It is important to note that the light switch is designed to control an unlimited number of linked controllers that are in range, and one controller can respond to up to 30 wireless remote light switches.
  • Install manual -
