Product Information

Full details

The B2C Motion Sensor CR-17 is an ideal solution for homeowners and facility managers looking to automate lighting in utility rooms, garages, and basements. It provides the key benefit of hands-free, energy-efficient lighting by triggering connected devices the moment motion is detected. However, users should note that the device requires a standard AC 220-240V power supply, making it unsuitable for low-voltage battery-powered setups or areas without direct mains access.
