FAQs

What is the maximum detection range of the PIR sensor?

The PIR sensor has a maximum detection range of up to 6 meters.

How long does the light stay on after motion is detected?

The light can be set to stay on for a duration between 10 seconds and 12 minutes, adjustable via the sensor's timing setting.

Is this light suitable for all weather conditions?

Yes, the light has an IP44 rating, which means it is protected against solid objects over 1mm and from water splashes from any direction, making it suitable for outdoor use.

What colours are available for this Hispec Up Down light?

This model is available in Anthracite Grey. Other finishes like Black and Stainless Steel may be available under different product listings.

Does this light require batteries?

No, this is a mains-powered light and needs to be wired directly into your home's electrical supply.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Hispec Up Down Exterior Wall Light comes with an extended 2-year guarantee for peace of mind.

Can the up/down lighting effect be adjusted?

The direction of the light beams (up and down) is fixed, but the intensity and coverage are determined by the bulb wattage and the fixture design.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on.

Check that the mains power is on and correctly connected. Verify the PIR sensor is not obstructed and has power. Ensure the unit is within its operational time settings.

PIR sensor is too sensitive or not sensitive enough.

Adjust the sensitivity dial on the PIR sensor. For increased sensitivity, turn clockwise; for decreased sensitivity, turn counter-clockwise. Ensure the sensor lens is clean.

Light stays on too long or turns off too quickly.

Adjust the 'time' setting on the PIR sensor. Turn the dial clockwise to increase the duration (up to 12 minutes) or counter-clockwise to decrease it (down to 10 seconds).

Light turns on unexpectedly.

Lower the PIR sensor's sensitivity setting. Ensure it is not being triggered by environmental factors like wind-blown debris, passing vehicles, or pets if placed too low. Check for extreme temperature fluctuations near the sensor.

Water ingress or corrosion.

Ensure the IP44 rating is maintained. Check that all seals are intact and the unit is securely mounted. If damage is visible, discontinue use and contact customer support.
