Definitely grabbing some of the wago lever connectors. Had the regular ones for tight spaces but always wished they could be changed without cutting the wire, this is way better. A must for connecting 4 or 5 wires which happens often in old house wirings
I would not put the sensor in a lamp fitting as it will detect light from the bulb then turn it self off again then then on again and so on
Thanks very helpful
Merry Christmas Jay & fam.
Thanks for teaching us essential skills to manage our homes. 🎅🏻🎄🎁☃️🕯️
Great idea for many homeowners. Lets go 🛠🛠
Thank you my friend! 🙏🏽😊
I learn a lot from your videos and don't think you repeat yourself too much. Thank you!
Another good option is the timer light switches, they can be a bit annoying to initially figure out the settings but once done they run well.
Thank you for sharing your suggestion! That is a great idea! 🙏🏽😊 I have one installed for my front lights as well 👍🏽😊

That’s what I did. Got a few TP-Link - Tapo Smart Wi-Fi Light Switch from Best Buy for $13 (on sale) and programmed the front/porch lights to turn on 30 minutes before sunset and turn off 30 minutes after sunrise
Thanks for the tips. Merry Christmas to You and Yours 🎉
This was a great video. Everything you said was thorough and very helpful! Thank You for teaching me!
I really like the way you explain everything. I have one of those photocell and will sure to connect it now
They do sell LED bulbs with light sensors too, just screw them in like a normal bulb, way easier than add allstuff you did
They do and I have a few, the issue is if its a shaded area like a porch it cant tell night and day well. With this you could theoretically drill a hole on like the side of the porch to put it through and turn any light on or off. Personally I ended up using a timer light switch for it
That works too! Thank you for sharing. 👍🏽
Very informative, thank you!
Yo my man, the red wire could be the hot wire but it's actually the load that powers up the light bulb 💡 hot wire is black that's the line wire.
Great Video. Thank you for sharing and Merry Christmas
Thanks for the great video very informative
Good stuff, thank you. 👍🏻
Thank you Ron! 👍🏽😊🙏🏽
So I got three outside light front of my house. With one will it work with all three with a single sensor?
Ty sir
I’m glad I could be of help!
Or you can just leave your light off at night
Could you do a video on electrical panels such as labeling, amps, safety etc. Thank you
Morning happy new year I'm planning to change my garage door hinges to the one you requested but it is not compatible to them the one in the middle of the 3 hinges that is the one I have so what do you recommend
I am curious about the longevity of it. Feel like here in AZ the UV kills everything unless its built really well. There are a few lights I would like to install these on
👍👍
Thank you!
Great share but an easier option is just to purchase a bulb that do it.
But is there anyway to wire a photocell with a switch bypass? Eg. need the light to be on when it’s dark outside like for a basement, I could also turn on independently?
That is a great question. Unfortunately I do not have an answer to your question at the moment. I will look into this and make a follow up video 🙏🏽
Just buy led auto on bulbs. Way easier.
Supposing I have several outdoor lights (SIX) all controlled by ONE indoor switch? There MUST be a simpler way than converting each separate fixture.
The sensor needs to face away from the bulb. I would drill the hole in the outer collar of the fixture.🦧
I agree! Sorry it was just a mock up example 😅🙏🏽👍🏽
