LED security lighting.

[BeeJay2]

Hi all, H.N.Y.
The passive, affixed to a recently bought LED security light is rubbish, sometimes it works, mostly it doesn't, no matter how often I set the er! settings. So my question is, other security lights that we have are linked in to GDJ passives, not integral with the lights & are excellent. The illumination of this new light is perfect & I'm reluctant to scrap it, is it possible to purchase a stand alone passive, disconnect or remove the integral one & connect the new passive, via cable to the new light.

Thanks in anticipation.
Please also explain what "tags " are in the forum???

That's what I did originally.
I was able to remove the integral PIR (because it stopped working) and reconnect the supply cables inside and then connect it to an external PIR that worked.
It was OK till the LED Flood stopped working.
If you know what you're doing, yes it is possible.
