A:  Yes, you just have to drill a hole and use the anchors provided.

A:  Unscrew the head. You can remove the light from the mounting bracket by loosening the screw on the side. This is a great buy. I’ve had mine up for over two years and changed the batteries once.

A:  You can see in the picture above there is a black arrow. When locked the unit will not open just twist the unit to the unlock position and remove the unit from the base. The batteries are housed within the unit in a holder. Simply open the holder remove the old batteries or if a new unit insert the new batteries and slide the unit back into the holder and twist to the locked position.

A:  The front cover screws off and you install the batteries.

A:  You twist the top cover off and it has a casing attached to it. You slip the batteries into the casing and twist the top back on. The bottom piece is hollow and only serves as a base to hold the light fixture and batteries.

A:  Here is answer.

A:  You twist the light off of the housing, then you open the battery case cover and install the batteries. For a video showing installation please visit us at https://www.mrbeams.com/installation-videos/wireless-motion-sensor-led-spotlight . Thanks!

A:  No you cannot, and it only comes on with motion so if there is no motion the light will go out.

A:  No, if the motion stops or moves out of range the auto shut off will turn off the light. There is no way to adjust the auto shut off. Thanks

A:  no it cannot be set for longer than 30 seconds. I just walk under it again if necessary.

A:  We use this light on our back porch and the light stay on longer than 30 seconds around a minute. As soon as it feels movements it turns on.

A:  Not that I'm aware of. If you know a good electronic tech. He possibly could help figure out how to increase light time.

A:  No.

A:  There is no time adjustment as far as I know.

A:  Hi Jerry! I would recommend putting the batteries in the unit, then placing it in a dark and motionless room for 10 minutes to reset the sensors. If that doesn't work, please feel free to contact us at customerservice@mrbeams.com or call 877-298-9082 opt 1 . Thanks!

A:  I would say that water got into it and it's shorting out. You can try to dry to dry it out with hair dried or let it set with batteries out and open for a few day, put batteries in an try again, if not replace it.

A:  Two batteries have the plus facing up and one facing down. Unlike incandescent bulbs the LED’s don’t function with voltage drops due to reversed batteries. The one with the + sign facing down will correspond to the location that has a spring on soldered to the cover. Good luck Ps. Could be a bum LED circuit if battery placement is good.

A:  Hi Jerry, I'm sorry it took so long to reply, as I didn't realize that there was a question. I've never encountered the issue that you're having. I did have one where the sensor failed completely though. Mine would go On and Off, constantly. Even with Brand New batteries installed. The only thing that I can possibly suggest, is to make sure the terminals where Batteries make contact are as clean as possible. Good Luck. T. B.

A:  Not so far, had them a very long time. It has not snowed very heavy but not in a light snow. Wanda

A:  Not usually, I've had mine outside for years never rain sometime snow might set it off.

A:  No only movement so far when we are near the light.

A:  It has not, and I live in Colorado. It does go off if the trees blow and leaves come in front, but not snow and rain.

A:  No, but water is not your friend, not very water proofed.

A:  Have had a set of these motion sensors for 2 years and they work great. They are not set off by rain or snow.

A:  No . We have several and they work great.

A:  1 but large compared to most

A:  1

A:  I believe it's 300.

A:  Hi Arthur, Thank you for reaching out. This unit is 140 lumens. I hope this helps! Aliece

A:  You could mount a piece of wood on to the siding with liquid nail and mount it to the wood.

A:  The unit requires three mounting holes for the screws. I wouldn’t chance drilling into metal siding for this defective unit.

A:  You could use a polyurethane construction adhesive (like PL 400 or lecture HD) to bond a small block of wood to the siding. Hold it in place temporarily using duct tape. After curing in good weather, the newly adhered block could hold the light with screws. It is light enough.

A:  If you cannot drill a pilot hole into the siding then some sort of an all weather construction adhesive might work. The light itself is not heavy but with 4 D cell batteries it adds so weight to the light.

A:  Hi Codie, Thank you for reaching out. This particular unit's base does require the screws to mount it into the wall.Im afraid double sided tape will not hold it up. The unit can stand on its own though and not be mounted if there is a place in the corner of your mobile home for it. Give us a call and we can attempt to help find some other solutions for you, like perhaps the stick anywhere light instead of a spotlight which can brighten that corner up for you as well. 877-298-9082, I look forward to hearing from you. Best, Aliece
