bump?..........

I'd be quick to say no, but I'm sure it's possible. If the "fire" button on the controller is 120v, I'd rig it to that. Would be worth a try.

Hey Brad I know the feeling of getting out alive. Just a note that may be helpful. It seems to rain a lot just after I put out my motion sensors and then they seem to act very quirky due to moisture or water being n them. i started wrapping clear glad bags around the sensor head to keep the water out. It seems to work fairly well and still triggers with movement with the bags on. I have purchased thses units and plug parts from walmart. The new 8120 model is around $12 and the time range is in seconds from 4 to like 800 rather than minutes.

Hi i live in the uk and i cant find the right kind of adapter for where the bulb would usally go

Take the bulb holder off of the base. Use the wires that power the socket, and wire them into an outlet, or the other end of the extension cord (the end that you plug stuff into).

ok thanks for the help

I wish I could use the light for the motion sensor! Where'd you pick yours up? Cheapest I found (Walmart site) was $30!!

Try this from walmart

Our walmart carries these but they are harder to find around halloween. I just bought a couple last week for about $10 so I would have them if I need them.

Great how to! THANKS!
