Finish:Bronze, Light Bulb:(2)150w T3 R7S 118mm 120v Halogen This fixture features 240 motion detection up to 100 feet. Swivel arms allow directional lighting. Tempered glass provides protection for the bulbs. Features DualBrite 2-level lighting. Selectable light timer (Test, 1 min, 5 min or 20 min). Mostly assembled.Heath Zenith’s SL-5512 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-5512-WH-A. Accepts halogen bulbs of up to 300 watts (included).–Josh Dettweiler

Hidden Defects I bought 4 of these and 2 single 250w, all with motions detectors; the dual 150ws had the “dual bright” feature. I installed them and the ones over my garage go on and stay on all night. If you download the instructions and look over all the Q & A, there is a hidden defect not mentioned in the instructions. its called induction. Its available on the Heath web site, but only after searching quite a bit. Only there does it explain that if you have any compact florescent lights; regular forescent lights; a garade door opener; anything with a motor; anything with a coil; these lights do not work; will go on and stay on all night. I had an electrician install these pull the power, put in boxes, etc. at substantial cost; now I find they are just consuming power (a lot) and not turning on and off with movement. So, I have had to turn them off. Again, this defect is not mentioned on the box or in the insturctions. They let you get about $300 of work done to get frustrated; then discover the “problem” on their web site; but there is no solution. The only solution is to pull power from a circuit without any florescent lights; motors; coils; etc. sure wish I knew this before I had the electricians out twice. With CFLs all the rage; unless you create a new circuit, you are very likely to have a florescent or coil or somthing else in your circuit. So, buyer beware. Keep your receipt and return them. I’m now on a search for lights without the secret induction flaw. Update several months later. I’ve tired to get some solution other than having these replaced by an electirican through contacting Heath Zenith but I get no response. Anyone finding similar lights without an induction problem, please post names or models so that others can see solutions also. I am still looking.
Energy saving lights This light is terrific. It uses a separate light switch, not included, to power off and on when you have it set to come on at dark and off at dusk. This is a great feature because it stays on dim and gets bright when it senses motion. This provides constant security through the night, and an added scare tactic when someone decides to get close to the house. I love it and recommend it to all.
