The Motion Activated Cordless Light detects motion up to 25 feet away and switches “on” with a bright floodlight-like shine that stays on for 30 seconds after motion has ceased
Fulcrum Motion-Sensor LED Porch Light
Illuminate the front porch in sleek, contemporary style with this Fulcrum 20031 motion-sensor LED porch light. In addition to creating a warm welcome, the light can be used to enhance security, at home or work. Use it at a side door, on a back deck, along a driveway, next to the garage, or any other outdoor space.
Easy Installation
The LED porch light installs in a matter of minutes, using only two screws (no wiring necessary). A mounting plate helps ensure simply, foolproof installation, plus allows for quick, easy battery replacement when needed. The porch lamp uses four C batteries (sold separately) and comes in three stylish colors–bronze, silver, and white–for an attractive addition to any exterior.
Convenient, Motion-Activated Design
The LED porch light features a motion-activated sensor that automatically turns the unit on when it detects movement, but only from dusk to dawn, helping to conserve energy during the day. In addition to turning on automatically, the porch light also turns off on its own after a specific amount of time. The hands-free on/off operation offers the ultimate in safety and convenience. Other thoughtful design details include the light’s weatherproof housing for sealed protection against moisture, as well as an adjustable head that rotates to aim the light where it’s needed most.
LED Floodlight Technology
The porch light’s LED floodlight technology combines six energy-efficient LEDs–that never require replacing–with a special lens for bright, glare-free light with exceptionally wide coverage.
Better than Ordinary LED
LED floodlight technology is a blend of special LED and lens technologies that create enhanced and more useable light. Ordinary LEDs emit a highly concentrated beam of light and illuminate only a small area. They also provide very little ambient light–the area outside of the beam is dark. Ordinary LEDs also emit a “hot” light, which produces glare and can cause eye-strain.
LED floodlight technology, the next generation of lighting technology, offers a smarter choice. It delivers an ultra-wide beam of bright, glare-free light, so you can see more. It also provides even and balanced illumination over a wide area, so you can see better and more comfortably–no more eyestrain or discomfort.
In addition, the LEDs never need to be replaced, and they use only 10% of the energy compared to a conventional light bulb, which ultimately translates to fewer batteries in landfills and more money in your pocket.

Doesn’t handle humidity so well I’ve had this a few months now and it’s working perfectly. I have it hung on the underside of my porch roof so it’s not directly exposed to the weather and I honestly don’t think I would recommend it for places where it will get rained / snowed on. I’m sure it will be able to handle the ambient moisture / cold / heat from being outside but I don’t think it would last long if you plan on mounting it directly in the elements – at least not unless you do some slight modifications to it like using caulk or silicone over the seams. The motion sensor function works great – it only comes on when it’s dark and the sensitivity is perfect. Once it detects no motion for approx 10 to 15 seconds it goes right back out again. The light is very adequate for shining on a door so you can see the keyhole or find your way in a dark area.UPDATE 9/17/2010: I wanted to add a couple of notes now that I have been using this light for six months. I had initially given this 5 stars but had to knock off a couple of stars due to some serious issues with the light. The light began staying on all night long when there was no motion – occasionally going off for a second and then coming back on again. Since it had been six months since I installed the light and the light was getting a bit dim I assumed that maybe it was because the batteries were dying. When I opened the door to replace the batteries white water poured out – the water was white due to the moisture inside the light corroding the batteries and they were leaking a lot of acid. It actually burned a little and the batteries were in such bad shape I’m surprised they were even able to turn the light on. As I mentioned above, my light is not exposed to any direct moisture at all – it’s hung on my porch roof which has an eave that extends down one foot from the roof line and the light is mounted in the corner. No matter how hard it rains the light would never be able to get hit by water so apparently the ambient humidity is getting into the light and condensing inside. I was able to get the light working again by leaving the battery door off and letting the insides dry (inside the house) for a week – I think the water was causing the circuit board inside to short out. Before I put the batteries back in I sealed all around the lens and all the seams with silicone sealant. After I put the batteries in I sealed the battery door shut with so hopefully that will keep moisture from entering. It really is a nice light and it’s a shame the manufacturer didn’t put a little more effort into making this more weather resistant. If you plan on using this outside at all I would recommend that you seal it up good first unless you live in a desert. As I mentioned the battery life is roughly six months, which is decent, but I think I expected more since it runs on 4 C cell batteries. Then again, maybe they would have lasted longer if they weren’t soaked in water.UPDATE 9/15/2012: I haven’t had any further issues with the light since sealing all the seams with silicone sealant and “Seal N’ Peel” (so I can get the battery door off in the future without too much of a fight). I haven’t had to replace the batteries since sealing it in 9/2010 so the batteries will last a very long time as long as moisture doesn’t find its way inside. Hopefully on future revisions the manufacturer will make the few small adjustments needed to make the light moisture proof.
Affordable and easy to install with sufficient lighting Just added this to the bottom of our apartment’s formerly unsafe and dark stairway. Powered by the 4 size C batteries, my only worry was whether this would sufficiently illuminate the section (the reason I ruled out a solar powered unit; these tend to put out as much light as a birthday candle). Initially tested the unit indoors and I was pleasantly surprised to see the LEDs put out a great deal of light…enough to read by. Installation is a breeze, the motion sensor is sensitive enough to turn on from about 6-8′ away, and hopefully the light lives up to the 6-12 month battery replacement claims. Only negative is not specific to this unit, but of LED lighting technology: the lights are so cold blue, it sometimes looks like a new car headlight is shining downward. Wonder why manufacturers do not include a slightly warm-tinted clear film to alter the light’s colour a bit. But overall, think this is a perfect renter’s choice in adding some safety lighting outdoors.
