Magnetic Light With Pir Sensor

Description

A 190 × 190 mm wireless magnetic container ceiling light with a built-in PIR sensor, putting out 300 lumens from ultrabright LEDs. There are no windows in a steel container, so anything more than a couple of feet inside the doors sits in the dark — and running a supply into a box that may be moved or sold on is rarely worth the trouble. This unit magnets straight onto the corrugated steel, needs no trunking, no consumer unit and no electrician, and comes down as quickly as it goes up.

How the sensor behaves

• Movement detected up to 6 m away
• Stays lit for 20 seconds after the last movement
• Only activates once darkness is detected, which is what preserves the batteries
• Estimated 6 to 12 months of battery life at 8 to 10 operations a day
• Runs on four D cells, supplied with the unit
• 300 lumens from ultrabright LEDs, in a white housing

Mounting and placement

The magnet holds directly to bare corrugated steel on the walls or ceiling. A container lined out in ply or melamine leaves no steel for the magnet to grip, so fix those with the screws supplied instead. One light for every 10 ft of container length is a reasonable allowance, and mounting them over the walkway rather than over the racking stops anything on a top shelf cutting the beam.

Buying one

Batteries are in the box, so there is nothing else to order, and delivery is free throughout the UK including Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, Jersey and Guernsey. The price shown is the total payable with no VAT added at checkout. You have 14 days to change your mind under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, plus a separate 30-day right to reject the goods under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 if they are faulty.

Lighting the outside too

For the approach and the doors themselves, the solar-powered container floodlight covers the same ground where no mains supply reaches the site at all. Inside, heavy duty container racking and dry sticks round out a basic storage fit-out.
