I have seen a few posts on this but I have seen conflicting views. So would like some clarification please:
I want to install some soffit lights along the porch on the front of our house.
I want them to be controlled by a PIR, so when we drive/walk up to the house the lights will come on (night time only).
Also I would like to be able to switch them on manually (independant of the PIR) so if I know people are coming to visit I can switch them on.
Do I need IP65 downlights or will normal IP20 lights do? I have enough of these left over and was hoping to utilise them. http://www.screwfix.com/prods/39572...U10-Satin-Nickel-Manis-Voltage-Downlight-Pk10
What sort of PIR would I need. Is this any good?? http://www.screwfix.com/prods/36316/Lighting-Lamps/Floodlights/PIRs-Photocells/180-Standalone-PIR#
Thanks
