About
Specifications & Features
Use this 12V day/night switch to automatically turn lights or low-voltage equipment on at dusk and off at dawn using its built-in photocell—ideal for indoor signage lighting and other setups where you want reliable after-hours operation without having to remember a manual switch.
Good for shopfront window signs and reception logo backlights, this switch keeps displays visible when ambient light falls. It senses changing light levels and handles daily on/off so your signage stays lit in the evenings without needing timers or staff to flip switches. Its small footprint lets you hide it behind signs or inside display cases, so installations look tidy while lighting stays consistent every night.
Specifications
- Voltage: 12Vdc operation
- IP Rating: IP65
Use Case Ideas: How, Where & Why!
Shopfront window signage lighting: Mount the photocell facing the mall walkway and switch a 12V LED sign up to 6A on at dusk, off at dawn automatically.
Office lobby logo backlight: Wire the switch to a 12V strip behind your reception logo so it illuminates after hours when ambient light drops, without staff touching a switch.
Retail display cabinet lighting: Keep glass cabinet products visible in the evening by powering 12V puck or strip lights automatically at dusk; the photocell handles daily on/off reliably.
Restaurant menu box illumination: Control a 12V backlight for your indoor menu case by the entrance, switching on at dusk and off at dawn without manual timers.
Corridor night safety markers: Automatically energise low-glare 12V marker LEDs in apartment corridors when ambient light fades, helping wayfinding at night while keeping daytime energy use minimal.
Installation Guidance, Tips & Tricks
Verify Indoor Placement Only: Use the switch only indoors; keep it dry and away from moisture.
Use Correct 12V DC Supply: Connect to a compatible 12V DC power source and follow device markings for connections.
Position Photocell For Ambient Light: Place the sensor where it can see typical room light without obstructions to reliably detect dusk and dawn.
Avoid Unwanted Light Feedback: Avoid mounting where controlled lights shine directly on the sensor, which could cause unintended switching.
Test Operation With Covering: Temporarily cover the photocell to simulate dusk and confirm lights or equipment turn on; uncover to verify daytime switch-off.
