Keep your home and family safer with motion sensing security lights. This wall mounted security light has a full range of features and is crafted with heavy-duty metal for rugged durability. DualBrite® 2-level lighting and automatic dusk-to-dawn operation.Heath Zenith’s SL-5597 bundles a motion sensor and a two-light halogen floodlight in a single package, but with a lot of extra features you don’t see in similar setups.
Unlike most motion-activated security lights, this one features “pulse count” technology that reduces the number of times that lamps are triggered due to wind and rain. In addition, the “Dual Brite” feature allows you to use it for low-level accent lighting in addition to the full-light effect you get with motion-activation (an included timer allows you to set low-light mode for three hours, six hours, or dusk to dawn-an automatic photocell deactivates the unit in daylight). The unit also includes a selectable timer that lets you set the amount of time the lights stay on after motion stops. Alternatively, it includes a manual override that lets you turn the light on and off at will via an existing indoor switch.
The sensor has a range of up to 70 feet and detects motion in a wide 240-degree range with a maximum 21,000-square-foot detection zone. The detection range is adjustable, too, so you can make sure the floodlights don’t go on every time a car drives by.
For the same floodlight in a white finish, see Heath Zenith product #SL-5597-WH-B. Accepts halogen bulbs of up to 200 watts (included).–Josh Dettweiler

not reliable at all My wife wants these insecurity lights. I put up 5 of them. Over the last 5 years I’ve had to replace all of them at least once. Sometimes they just flash or go out on their own. If the power goes out then they might or might not come on again correctly. I loathe the awful Heath lights and would take them all down if I could.
DO NOT BUY I bought 3 of these last summer and now only one works, and it comes on all the time by itself. I figure the sensors are faulty, the light comes on even in bright sunlight at noon, and sometimes just decides to stay on all day. I absolutly despise this company now and will never purchase another thing from them seeing that I have tried 2 other Heath Zenith models as well. NO GOOD!
