Add motion sensor to existing outdoor light

Roy requested 3 quotes from Electricians in Bentleigh

  I have an outdoor light, and I just want to add motion sensor to it. Preferably a good quality unit that won't get triggered by rain or wind like Clipsal.

Electricians that Responded

Peterson Power Pty Ltd

When the Clipsal motion sensor they installed stopped working a week after, and again a couple months later, Dennis blamed moisture / weather / our builder. He told us that if he found moisture in the terminals of the sensor, he would have to charge us for the call out because it not their fault. We disagreed because the sensor, according to him was the best quality, IP66 waterproof rated and built for the outdoor. Dennis was also very condescending about it. When he finally agreed to come the last time we called, he didn't bother turning up even though he sent us a confirmation via Service Central. We had taken time off work for a no show. Later, he told us he lodged a warranty claim, but they Clipsal team said they received nothing from him. In the end, Clipsal warranty team sent out their electrician who promptly replace the unit because it was faulty - there was no charge and should have been done earlier on by the installer.
