I brought a PIR switch from Wickes( http://www.wickes.co.uk/Green-i-Movement-Sensor-Switch/invt/205591) to use in my downstairs WC. I had an LED bulb in but it didn't work - the PIR system wouldn't turn off. I tried a low energy gu10 type bulb and that just flickered. Seems it will only work with mains voltage halogen. Why is this? I'm thinking that when the PIR is activated the bulb is slowly dimmed up abeit very quickly making a non dimmer-able LED or low energy unusable?
Am i right and is there any type of low energy bulb i can use?
