Usually you have a control of the motion sensor where you can arm and disarm when you want it on you ARrm when Not you Disarm. I'm not sure you canput into the actually light fixture but you'd have to install separate.Go to Home Depot or Lowe's where you can buy individual vs the whole system, Motion Sensor with Control and they'll also advise how,where you can install

Probably the most effective way to accomplish this would be to purchase and install a motion detecting switch. You see them in many public bathrooms. The down side is your light may turn off before you want it to. Make sure the switch has a manual on & off in case you want it on while you are outside it's range.

no count in case you replace the sensor easy or convert it, you will could desire to connect the wires and setting up the unit. are you able to try this your self? If not attempt to discover a chum or handyman to grant help to. it quite is not a confusing activity for somebody who's accessible and has a undemanding information of electrical energy. warning, consistently make very optimistic that the electrical powered energy is became off in the past attempting any maintenance. stable luck.

I've seen motion sensor wall switches before, we had them at a hospital I worked at. It would be better to find something like that then trying to install something in the ceiling.
(This is what they looked like, see link)

You need a motion switch with a light sensor so it will only activate when it is dark.

get a timer to turn off the sensor power during the day and have it set to turn on during the night.
