Lighting Design Dilemma

Motion Sensor Light Bulbs for recessed lights size R30

6 years ago

Do you know if they exist? I want to replace my current recessed light bulbs with motion sensor ones so when I go into a room, it automatically turns on. Home depot said they only have recessed light bulbs for bigger recessed lights but not my size. Thanks

Why not replace the light switch with the motion sensor switch?

This^^... The downside to these is if you stay in the room, you need to move once in a while to keep it on or you need to move the switch to 'on' so the sensor doesn't kick in.
