Top rated Motion sensors
Here's a ranking of the top rated products in this category. To give you a quick overview, we've also added some key information about the products.
1. Philips Hue motion sensor
The motion detector recognises whether someone enters a dark room or leaves an illuminated room. In the first case, it activates the light with the brightness and colour temperature you have programmed. So if, for example, the children have to go to the loo at night, they are not dazzled by bright light but are guided through the corridors by soft lighting. In the second case, when someone leaves a room and no one is moving around, the sensor first gradually dims the light by 50 per cent before switching it off completely.

2. Philips Hue Outdoor Motion Detectors
With the weatherproof Philips Hue Outdoor Sensor, your indoor and outdoor lighting will turn on or off automatically. Thanks to the energy-saving daylight sensor, the sensor only reacts when there is insufficient daylight. This way, your lighting is only on when it is truly needed. The sensor has a detection angle of 160° horizontally and 80° vertically, with a range of 12 meters. The response time of under 0.5 seconds can be individually adjusted in the Hue app. The package includes a mount that can be attached either frontally or in a corner. The sensor is powered by batteries, eliminating the need for disruptive cables. For optimal results, a mounting height of 1.5 to 2.5 meters is recommended. Batteries included.

6. Steinel Is 140-2
Live comfortably while saving energy. Enjoy enhanced quality of life, safety, and energy savings through the intelligent sensor technology from STEINEL.
Light on/off – automatically. Highly innovative sensors respond to movements and light conditions, automatically turning the light on and off after a set time.
The IS 140-2 is considered a classic among infrared motion detectors. STEINEL has now enhanced this classic with even more features. With larger adjustable angles both horizontally and vertically for targeted detection around the house at a detection angle of 140°, increased range (up to 14 m), and more detection levels, the IS 140-2 allows for more comprehensive monitoring. The optical system is equipped with precise, spherical Fresnel lenses that enable more accurate person detection and consistently high range.
Adjustment options: Accurate customization of the detection area through the horizontally adjustable optical system (90°) and vertically (180°). Additionally, the detection area can be restricted using included cover plates. The IS 140-2 features simple adjustment of time and twilight threshold via a rotary knob located at the bottom of the sensor lens. Thanks to the spacious and clearly organized connection area, the infrared motion detector IS 140-2 can be wired easily and quickly, and mounted on a wall or corner – the suitable corner wall mount is available as an accessory. The connection can be made either surface-mounted or flush-mounted.

7. Steinel Infrared sensor IS 140-2
Improved quality of life, safety, and energy savings through intelligent sensor technology from Steinel. The light automatically turns on and off. Highly innovative sensors respond to movement and lighting conditions, turning the light back on and off after a set time. The IS 140-2 is considered a classic among infrared motion detectors and is now equipped with even more features. With larger adjustment angles both horizontally and vertically for targeted detection around the house, a detection angle of 140°, a range of up to 14 meters, and multiple detection levels, the IS 140-2 enables comprehensive monitoring. The optical system features precise, spherical Fresnel lenses for accurate person detection and a consistent range. The detection area can be precisely adjusted using the optical system, which can swivel 90° horizontally and 180° vertically. Additionally, the detection zone can be restricted with the included cover plates. The IS 140-2 allows for easy adjustment of time and twilight thresholds via a rotary control located at the bottom of the sensor lens. Thanks to the spacious, clearly arranged connection area, wiring is quick and easy, and the supply line can be mounted on the surface or in the wall.
