ᐅ Controlling a Second Light with a Motion Sensor Light?

Hello everyone,

We have two light outlets at the entrance area of our house for which we are currently looking for lamps. Our goal is for both lamps to turn on and off simultaneously. My wife doesn’t like the look of installing an additional motion sensor to control both lamps. If we buy a lamp with an integrated motion sensor, is it possible to somehow link it with the second lamp so that it also responds to the motion sensor?

Many thanks to the experts.

Best regards
Herr Stein

There are various suppliers; for example, Steinel offers SL (Slave) lamps in addition to those with motion sensors. Then one motion sensor controls both.

It should even be possible (at least in the PRO series) for both lamps to have a motion sensor, so that when one of them is triggered, both lamps turn on. However, it's best to check the details yourself or get professional advice.

Sometimes the BWM output is connected to a separate terminal on the terminal block of your lamp. From there, you only need one cable to your second lamp. Then it works.
