[Shop-talk] LED motion lights

[eric at megageek.com]

I guess I should have stated that I've been having problems finding one 
for decades.  I had the old style with screw in bulbs (BEFORE there were 
even LEDs.)  I've tried the build in LEDs.

They mostly fail by either never turning off, or never turning on (and 
yes, I'm aware that some have 'overrides' where you turn it and off with 
the switch and it works normal, this wasn't the case.)  the last one would 
flash on and off constantly and night.

Any ideas what the failure mode was for the fixtures that have died?  Were 
they the style that had non-replaceable LEDs or were they the old-school 
style that use screw-in bulbs?

braintrust... 

I have been in a constant battle to find an LED outdoor motion light that 
will work for more than a year or two. 

I've tried cheap ones, expensive ones, and nearly everything in between. 

Can someone recommend a brand/model that they have had good success with? 
 I am looking for hardwired ones only, not the solar battery ones. 

Thanks.
