Update; I received the replacement sensor for the one that stayed on all the time and the light is working perfect now! The customer service at RAB has been outstanding. Now I just hope these last for a decent amount of time!!

Update; Received and installed the new sensor RAB sent me (very good customer service BTW) and the new sensor stays on all the time. made sure they were not stuck in the manual override mode per the manual, called RAB and they think I got a very rare bad sensor. So, another sensor is once...

The previous fixtures from the big box stores failed one first then probably a month of so later the other failed. This time, one has failed and the other still functioning. I will check the voltage on them. Thank you for the thoughts :) -Garry

That's a great question. I have correct and stable power to both of these fixtures. What kind of electrical issues could there be? -They are both wired to a wall switch in the house so I can de-activate them because they are by our hot tub and when using the hot tub, we don't want them cycling...

Update; Well, it's not even 6 month with the new RAB security lights installed. They worked flawlessly up until a few weeks ago when one of then quit working altogether, just like the big box store ones I had previously. I contacted RAB and they are sending me out a new sensor, as the lights I...

If the area (backyard) was high traffic, which it's not, I would have gone with the significantly more expensive LED model, but since I can get PAR38 bulbs in both Halogen and LED, it seemed to make sense especially since the RAB sensor looked to be the same for both lights. It looks like their...

Awesome, after two failures from big box stores, I am looking forward to installing these two RAB lights! I'm impressed they come with a ten year warranty as well and in reading the warranty it states even if they are out of warranty and there is an issue to send them in with $30.00 and they...

They take 2 ea. PAR38 bulbs @ 150W maximum each bulb.

Okay, I ordered two of the following from Prolighting.com RAB 300 Watt Max Stealth Security Light - 110° Detection - 120V - Bronze Thanks for the recommendations guys! -Garry

Thank you all for the input, I will do a search for the RAB products. Cheers, -Garry

Hi folks, as the title says; What is a high quality outdoor motion detection flood light that lasts? I have had terrible luck with the big box store brands. They just don't last, the motion detector lens covers deteriorate and crack, the LED lights stop working and just seem to be overall junk...

The tracks have holes in them. Simply insert a screwdriver into one of the hols that line up the closest to the top of one of the rollers. It works nicely for security as well.

I went with the TuffShield, as I like the shine over the standard! It sure transitioned my garage from blah to Wow!

Call Advantage and talk to Tony Weber and have him add the Rolling Bridge Jack to your order. I got the manual one and it's great!

Sounds like you could go either way, 120vac or 240vac with your setup. The only thing the 240vac option will give you over the 120vac is that the lift will rise slightly faster. That is not an issue for me, as I'm retired and I really don't feel the need to have to do things faster any more and...
