[QUOTE="Richard-the-Ninth, post: 531903, member: 23472"] If car headlights are triggering your PIR (It's not uncommon) I would suggest it does not have a white light filter. The easiest solution would be to move the sensor so it does not look out onto the road, I appreciate that is often easier said than done. The other option you have is to change brand of sensor, I would suggest you do not buy one called Zinc Dion, I had 4 of them, and they all gave trouble (They activated for no reason) so I consigned them to the bin (I have a timer now) It would be nice if you came back and posted what you do get and how you get on.
