Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What voltage does this photocell light control switch support?
A: This outdoor light control switch is designed to operate with AC 220–240V electrical systems at a maximum current of 10A, making it compatible with most standard European and international outdoor lighting setups.
Q: Does this switch turn lights on and off automatically every day?
A: Yes! The built-in high-sensitivity photocell sensor detects ambient light levels. When darkness falls, it automatically turns the connected lamp on, and when daylight returns, it switches it off — completely hands-free, every single day.
Q: Is this switch suitable for use in rain or extreme temperatures?
A: Absolutely. This switch is weatherproof and rated for an operating temperature range of -20°C to +70°C, so it holds up reliably through cold winters and hot summers in outdoor environments.
Q: How long is the delay before the light turns on or off after the sensor detects a change?
A: The switch has a built-in delay time of approximately 10–15 seconds. This prevents unnecessary switching caused by brief changes in light, such as a passing vehicle's headlights or a momentary shadow.
