The All-Pro MS180W is a replacement, adjustable motion security floodlight sensor. This motion sensor features a durable, high-impact, non-metallic sensor head. It is weather resistant and provides years of trouble-free service. This outdoor flood light motion sensor easily installs to one or more existing lights. 30 motion detection zones, the most of any brand. Turns lights on automatically when motion is detected; detects motion at 180 Degree and up to 70 ft. Adapts to most wall and eave mount applications. Convenient tool-free sensor head adjustment. Adjustable time and sensitivity settings. Power outage protection, saves energy by automatically resetting at dawn if lights are triggered by power interruption. Approximate coverage area of 7,600 square feet.
180 degree detection zone up to 70 ft.
Integral photo cell prevents lights from turning ON with motion during daylight hours (auto modes)
Motion sensor turns lights ON automatically when motion is detected and OFF after a preselected time delay (4 or 12 minutes)

Works great, an inexpensive motion sensor switch
Easy to install and it’s working great sop far. Very sensitive too.

Very good unit. Straight-forward, well written directions
I’ve been looking for a different manufacturer to replace the Heath/Zenith units I’ve been using. Those last awhile but then fail in less than a year, at least in my experience. The Cooper went straight to work and performs just as needed and described. There is an indicator light to show power is on and a photo cell to keep the light from coming on during the day. Also, a 4 or 12 minute delay off selector plus the sensitivity/range dial. One word of caution though. Use a tool (pliers, strap wrench, etc., to screw the unit into the base plate. I know better and I still used the assembly for leverage. The “elbow” is plastic and is a small bit at that. Certainly not meant to handle that sort of load. Fortunately the screw was long enough and I removed the broken off part and put the screw back in and had enough thread to secure it with.Cooper Lighting MS180 180 Degree Replacement Motion Security Floodlight Sensor, BronzeCooper Lighting MS180W 180 Degree Replacement Motion Security Sensor Floodlight, WhiteI’ll post an update after some time has passed.

It may not be the best, but at least it works
All-Pro MS180Came with wire nuts and wires were labeled for easy installation, plus clear instructions (although the diagrams could have been clearer).Works with the led floodlight I wired it to; whereas the old sensor this replaced would cause the light to flash every couple seconds, wouldn’t sense motion reliably, and would remain on constantly sometimes, this one does none of those. It reliably turns on with a click, and then off after a set time, and doesn’t turn on during daylight thanks to the light sensing diode.It does not have sensitivity adjustment, though that didn’t turn out to be a problem for me, it’s something to be aware of. The time adjustment is arbitrary, probably just a simple circuit, so you have to figure out the range/scale yourself.Anyway, works well for my purposes. If you have an led light that flashes as long as it has power, you might consider this sensor to replace your existing one. It may not be the best, but at least it works.

Working Great with LED Bulbs
I already had outside flood lights, but they were not motion sensor. I used this MS180 to convert them to motion sensor. There are probably better motion sensor units on the market, but probably not for this price. I thought I was getting false triggers until I looked out the window. First it was a deer walking through the yard, next time it was a dog, then the other day, an opossum triggered the lights. It is that sensative. The MS180 has been operational for about a month now. Time will tell how durable it is.The ability to switch modes to a static dusk-to-dawn light is a nice added feature. To switch to dusk-to-dawn, just turn the light OFF and ON TWICE within a three second period. (i.e. OFF-ON-OFF-ON) Make sure the light is in the ON position before you start the sequence. It will automatically reset to motion sensor mode after one day.Several people have said this unit will NOT work with LED flood lights. I am using two 10w (65w equivilance) LED flood lights in my unit. LED lights WORK perfectly fine for me. In fact the lower heat given off by LEDs may help reduce false triggers.

A Motion Sensor Product That Works
I bought two of these units to replace two Heath/Zenith 5316s, one of which was nearly new. The Heath/Zenith 5316 sensors were problematic from the start and were too unreliable to give real peace of mind for their coverage areas. Various weather conditions would make them stop working altogether. The local home improvement and hardware stores only carry the Heath/Zenith products or the same products under a different brand name, but fortunately we’re no longer at the mercy of the local store and what they have in stock.I have both of my Cooper MS180Ws installed and both are working perfectly. I’ve had chances to test them in weather conditions under which the Heath/Zenith units failed (cool and/or very humid) and they continued to work flawlessly. They are a bit physically larger than the Zenith 5316 but this is apparently to accomodate an oversized lens, which I have to believe helps with it’s more consistent detection range and ability. This unit has a brighter, round LED located on the bottom and works opposite of the Zenith model. The LED stays on constantly to show that the unit is in the “armed” condition and blinks off when motion is detected. Also, unlike the ones they replaced, these units make an audible click when triggered, meaning they probably have a more robust relay than the Zenith models. The best part is that they’re reliable. I now feel confident that the areas these units are monitoring are protected, and that’s the main purpose for me.I would absolutley recommend this unit to everyone looking for a low-cost, reliable motion sensor and would definitely recommend it over it’s competitor’s weak offerings.

Simple inexpensive funtional replacement sensor.
Functional, simple replacement for a failed sensor system. Worked instantly.

Works fine and replaced my old one
Installed today and works good so far. Even came with three wire nuts that I needed. Wires may be a little smaller than old one but plenty good for LED lights.

Works much better than Home Depot sensor
Bought this to replace a sensor bought from Home Depot, which sometimes would work OK, but sometimes not turn on even if you walked right in front of it left to right. Very frustrating!This one works perfectly. It activates at about 25 – 30 feet. Don’t believe the box which says 70 feet- that’s nonsense. I like that you can be right at the edge of the 180 degree lens area and it will turn on like it should. Works fine with an LED floodlight (why would you use anything else?)Sensitivity can not be adjusted, but this should not be an issue. You can just aim the unit lower if it triggers when you don’t want it to. It has a single knob with a TEST position, and if you turn the knob you can set the ON duration continuously to about 12 minutes. Good unit.
