I've got a wall lamp outside my front door and would like it to come on when it goes dark outside.
Now it would seem that at some point there has been a sensor (looks like a glass dome with electronics inside) that did the task screwed to the side of the porch and appears connected to the lamp looking at the wire trail, trouble is it doesn't seem to work as when the switch is flicked it comes on night or day.
It may need adjusting if possible (I will look tonight) but if not does anyone know of a replacement sensor that would do the job? Everything I find on Google is a bulky thing which also has a motion sensor, I don't need or want that feature.
Any help appreciated, push come to shove I can take a photo if I get stuck with any of the potential settings or to identify what this glass dome thing actually is!
