E27 PIR Motion Sensor Socket Converter – Auto Lamp Switch
E27 PIR Motion Sensor Socket Converter – Auto Lamp Switch
E27 PIR Motion Sensor Lamp Base Socket Converter
Upgrade any standard E27 light fixture with intelligent, hands-free automation. This E27 PIR Motion Sensor Socket Converter detects movement using passive infrared technology and automatically switches your bulb on when someone enters the detection zone — then turns it off again after a set delay. Perfect for hallways, stairwells, garages, storage rooms, closets, and outdoor porches. Save energy and enjoy effortless convenience without rewiring or smart-home hubs.

How It Works
The converter uses passive infrared (PIR) technology to detect the natural infrared energy emitted by the human body. When motion is detected within the 360° sensing field, it instantly activates the connected bulb. Once movement stops, the built-in timer counts down (adjustable from ~10 seconds to ~5 minutes) before switching the light off automatically. The ambient light sensor can also be configured to keep the light off during daytime hours, saving energy around the clock.
Installation
- Turn off the power to your light fixture at the switch or breaker.
- Screw the motion sensor socket adapter into your existing E27 lamp holder.
- Screw your E27 bulb (up to 60W) into the top socket of the converter.
- Restore power — the sensor is ready to go.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What bulb types are compatible with this E27 PIR motion sensor socket?
A: This converter works with any E27-base bulb — including LED, CFL, and incandescent — as long as the rated wattage does not exceed 60W. LED bulbs are recommended for maximum energy savings.
Q: Can I use this PIR motion sensor socket outdoors?
A: The sensor socket can be used in covered outdoor fixtures (e.g. porch lamps) where it is protected from direct rain. It is not rated for fully exposed, weatherproof outdoor installations.
Q: How do I adjust the time-delay before the light turns off?
A: The unit features an adjustable time-delay dial that lets you set the light to stay on anywhere from approximately 10 seconds to 5 minutes after motion is no longer detected. Simply turn the dial to your preferred setting.
Q: Will this work on both 110V and 220V electrical systems?
A: Yes. The E27 PIR socket converter is compatible with AC 100–240V at 50/60Hz, making it suitable for use worldwide without a separate voltage adapter.
Q: Does the light turn on during the day even if there is motion?
A: By default, the built-in ambient light sensor (adjustable from 3 to 2000 LUX) can be set to suppress activation in sufficient daylight, so the bulb only activates when it is actually dark enough to need light.
