They are on a circuit with about 4 PIR sensors that span the length of the hallway (they all work, I hear the relays click in each one). When the timer goes, all but 2 of...

    LED PIR flood light (flashing)

    I put it up myself just 2/3 years back. Suddenly, out of the blue, when triggered it it flashes on/off/on/off repeatedly for the prescribed on period. Knowing why it does that would be nice but either way I presume it's dead/dying and needs replacing. It's on the wall adjacent to the bedroom...

    Killed a PIR, fluorescent lighting

    Actually managed to kill 2 PIRs in succession yesterday. The first I got SL and N mixed up (who uses the black core of a 3C+E as neutral? honestly), which killed it dead, tripping the breaker in the process. Schoolboy error. The second, well I don't feel it's 100% my fault. The PIR I had...
