Trying to decipher the bad Chinese instructions for both the light and sensor.
I put one of these lights on our side porch the other month, I have another for our front porch light, which is about 16' high.
I would like to add a motion sensor to both of them. From everything I have read, the sensor is compatible and people have made them work. I'm just trying to make sure I wire it right before I climb up 16' to install it.
Sensor has standard Red, White, Black leads.
The light has spaces at the junction of the White and Black wires inside to add an additional White and Black.
Black, White and ground out the back.
I think I should be able to put the Black and White wires into the open positions in the box and then tie red to the black running to the junction box...which seems right.
The light in question.
