Can the PnP brand 30w motion sensor led floodlight be set to come on permanently

The specific capabilities and settings of the PnP brand 30W motion sensor LED floodlight may vary depending on the model and design. However, in general, motion sensor LED floodlights are typically designed to operate based on detected motion and have a preset duration for illumination after motion is detected.
If you would like the PnP 30W motion sensor LED floodlight to remain on permanently, overriding the motion sensor function, you can try the following steps:
1. Locate the settings: Check if the floodlight has any accessible settings or switches that allow you to adjust its operation. This could be located on the fixture itself or on a separate control module if provided.
2. Disable or bypass the motion sensor: Look for an option to disable or bypass the motion sensor function. This might involve flipping a switch, pressing a button sequence, or adjusting a specific setting. Consult the product manual or contact the manufacturer's customer support for guidance on how to accomplish this for your specific model.
3. Connect the floodlight to a separate power source: If disabling the motion sensor function is not possible or practical, you can consider connecting the floodlight to a separate power source that provides constant power. This could involve bypassing the original wiring or using a separate switch or power outlet that remains on continuously.
It's important to note that overriding the motion sensor function may affect the energy efficiency and intended purpose of the floodlight. Motion sensor lights are typically designed to conserve energy by only activating when motion is detected, providing illumination when needed. Keeping the light on permanently may result in increased energy consumption and reduced bulb lifespan.
Always refer to the product manual or consult the manufacturer's instructions for the specific model of the PnP 30W motion sensor LED floodlight to ensure you understand its features and limitations.

The LED flashes, but the lights won't come on. Do I need to install a light shield. The sensor is mounted in a well shaded area 10 to 12 feet above ground. There are landscape lights beneath the sensor are...

There are settings on the sensor itself. Should be a dusk to dawn setting that will keep it off during those times and then function at night. as far as not working I would first suggest setting the sensitivity. Disrupting to power could have reset this.

Hi there. i have D7000 with 50mm F1.8D. what would be the best camera setting for in-house and outdoor photography?

That would depend on a lot of factors. Are you doing the outdoor photography in the day or at night? Are you doing the indoor photography in the day or at night? With just existing light or with aritificial light? What do you want the photos to say to the viewer?

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you want to take pictures for real estate sales purposes. If not, please reply to this post and say what you want the photos for.

Outdoors, I'd just put the camera into the Program (P) exposure mode. Since the house and shrubbery aren't going to be moving very fast, the autofocus setting doesn't matter much (just make sure it is set to one of the autofocus modes, not manual). Leave the white balance on auto.

Indoor, if there's enough daylight coming in through the windows, go with Program exposure, any autofocus, and auto white balance. If you have to use floodlights, set the white balance to match the floods. The camera's built-in flash won't evely illuminate a room (nearer stuff will be much brighter than the farther stuff), so don't use it. You can use an external flash with a diffuser or bounced off the ceiling or a wall.

Will solar garden lights set off the parkhurst 400w floodlight

The should not. Motion detectors are not affected by lights other than having sufficient ambient light to the photocell to tell the light that it does not need to come on. I have not seen solar lights that fit that bill, so I would conclude that there would be no effect. Solar garden lights do not affect the flood light that my neighbors have, by the way.

I hope this is helpful to you.
