Wanted to replace entry light for a motion sensor model. This one was the closest match in style to the 25 year old lights in other areas outside the house. It works fine for automatic lighting. The style is somewhat similar to the old ones but much flimsier and is merely painted sheet metal rather than cast brass. I hope it lasts at least 10 years.

I installed this lamp at our front entryway and couldn't have made a better choice. The best feature, other than the motion sensor, is the dual illumination. A 75 watt incandescent bulb was installed. At dusk when the low level lighting comes on, I'm guessing it would be at approximately 1/3 illumination or 25 watts. When the motion sensor is activated, the full 75 watts comes on for the time desired. After that time has expired - ours is set for 5 minutes - the light reverts to the lower level again. The dual lighting provides a nice accent to the entryway, it's never totally dark and at dawn, it turns itself off. Easy to understand directions and was easy to install. Fixture is attractive and the bottom is open for easy bulb installation and cleaning. I would not use a fluorescent bulb unless it's specified for dual lighting operation.

installation was easy -- though I haven't tried the more complicated installation yet in which multiple lights are hooked together to trigger one another. I think the product is nice for accenting the home while also providing an added level of security.

Excellent purchase - these lamps have all the features anyone would want. The low lighting is dusk to dawn, the higher lighting kicks in via motion sensor. You can also set how long the motion-activated lighting stays on (1, 5 or 10 mins) before it reverts back to low lighting. It takes up to 100W but that's a bit too bright so I use standard 60W.
