Pros & Cons
Pros
Locate the 3 old holes and push it down the new photo control. Saved us so much money and time in buying and installing a new light. As products change its maddening to find parts.
After plugging this one in it worked right away at dusk and dawn. Once on top of the light fixture just plug and play works great. When i got this sensor it has a arrow pointing north as well and that when i had a problem.
Cons
Maybe this is a knockoff of the magnatron photocell. I know the light works but the other sensor keeps the light on all day and night. Had for a grand total of 4 months before itblew out.
