So, title says it all really.
I had a halogen security floodlight with an integrated PIR.
The mains feed ran into the PIR and there was a switched live accessible (it went to the floodlight), so I ran a further cable from this light to another non-sensor light, such that when the PIR switched the floodlight on, both lights came on.
The floodlight is very old - it pre-dates Part P.
I'd like to swap this floodlight for a modern LED unit, but all of the PIR LED floodlights that I can find seem to have just a mains connection to the PIR and no access to a switched live from the PIR. The connection from the PIR to the LED is enclosed and/or filled with some sort of potting compound)
In essence, what I'm looking for is an LED floodlight with PIR that has an accessible switched live (aka accessory switching) so that I can just do a simple swap of the old unit for the new.
I know that I could run the mains feed to a stand-alone PIR and then run this to non-sensor lights, but this would involve re-configuring the cables where, ideally, I just want to swap like-for-like.
So, (a) do such things as 'accessory switching' PIR LED floodlights actually exist and (b) can anyone point me in the right direction (links to same would be fab).
A quick Google search using terms like led security light "accessory switching" simply turns up "ordinary" PIR security floodlights as so searches on the likes of Toolstation & Screwfix
Thanks in anticipation,
