“This motion sensor works beautifully and is exactly as advertised. I bought it so that my husband can have a little light when he gets up in the middle of the night and yet we can have a dark bedroom for the rest of the night. This keeps him from tripping over items left on the floor etc. it emits a soft orange light that doesn’t wake me up when it goes off. His movement triggers the light to come on immediately and it goes off as soon as he walks a few feet away. It only works in a dark room and it does not come on during daylight hours. I just leave it turned to the on switch all the time.”
“Really handy for trips I put it in the bathroom at the hotel. Like that you can switch to off so doesn’t wear out battery in luggage. Also like for my laundry room on the motion sensor mode”
“Love this little light! At first, I thought the motion sensor didn't work, but it only works when it is dark. It is a genius little device! The blue-free motion sensor is so cool, and the charge lasts several days, almost a week without recharging. The recharging is quick! The ONLY minor quirk, is the power plug is a little tricky to get in sometimes, and could be secured a little more internally.”
“I'm an engineer and own my own firm with 20 employees
1.) I really want to know how long to charge them using 1.5 and 2.1 amp chargers... I don't want to decrease battery life by overcharging, and it says approx 2 hours, but at which amperage?
2.) Will charging them 4 hours or 8 hours significantly decrease the battery life?
Love them - I bought 5. Using them all the time - even camping and visiting friends...
3.) NOTE: The time off / on memory seems subject to variability when you switch from on to auto. It stays on sometimes when I switch to auto.
4.) Charging Time issue solved by Mechanical Timer: I have some in 2 bathrooms, hallways and bedrooms. I take them down on the weekends and charge them, with a mechanical timer, so I don't over charge them, set to 2 hours...
5.) Solution to Consider DC System: that's why I really wish I could retrofit a 12 volt DC or USB charging system, and run some USB / or low voltage hardwiring to recharge these automatically, on a timer. I prefer low voltage DC LED lighting, and have some solar charging capability.
6.) Another reason to Consider a LBL DC System: AC switching power supplies put electromagnetic interference back on the power system of the house - easily measured with these EMI line meters. https://safelivingtechnologies.com/products/line-emi-meter.html The clean sinusoidal 60 Hz AC is chopped up.
I'm sorry if you disagree about potential health effects, I'm an engineer and have been studying EMFs as a hobby for almost 10 years. I have also worked in nuclear power plants and have radiation training.
This NASA rocket scientist is an EMI expert, highly credentialed and makes AC dirty electricity line filters as well. He was in charge of the US LACE Missle defense system. His resume is unmatched. Robert Palma:

So in short, can we make a DC system for the LBL products???? And address my charging questions?
Love your products, thanks. Sam”
