The HPM Programmable Weatherproof Light Sensitive Switch turns lights on at sunset and turns lights off at a user-specified time. HPM has developed an innovative and unique program to provide a consistent off time all year round irrespective whether it is summer or winter season.

Conventional light sensitive switches use a time delay from sunset to calculate the off time, causing lights to turn off either too early during winter or too late during summer. The new programmable light sensitive switch from HPM enables you to set a defined off-time for your outdoor lighting applications that remains consistent all year, regardless of seasonal changes in sunrise/sunset times. This is important as the variation in sunrise and sunset times in summer and winter lead to inconsistent off times and energy wastage.
Program your preferred off-time and adjust the lux levels using a simple dial setting, and that’s it. And if there is power loss the non-volatile memory ensures the program is restored.
Ideal for illuminated signage, window shop lighting, offices, factories, car parks, security lights, common areas, homes and parks
