Hi all, I’m looking for recommendations for motion activated outdoor lights. I have both Zwave and WiFi/MQTT-Tasmota in my setup. I’m replacing and old non-smart fixture, so the location already has 110v (US) power

Any suggestions or experiences with devices in your environment?

    Depends entirely on what your use case is but personally I am doing some outdoor lighting soon and will be using dumb fixtures on a smart (lutron caseta) switch + motion sensor to trigger automations. Happy to dive in if you have questions.

    I have been using a Sengled ZigBee outdoor spot bulb with built in motion detector. It reports motion and will automatically turn the light on. It also has a built in timer to turn bulb off. They also sell it without ZigBee. Of course, if you turn the switch off, the motion does not work.
