Which PIR did you use? I was just about to order a couple MS13E but
noticed this:
"For use in-doors, or in sheltered outdoor positions where it will
not come into contact with rainfull/moisture "
Does this mean the MS13E is unsuitable for a bathroom which is
obviously going to generate a degree of moisture?
Also, what door contacts did you use? It would be nice if there was
some form of X10 RF door contact but I have come across any so far.
I really would like to get the bathroom light motion automated
especially for the night time dim since that has long been my
intention. I hadn't considered the door contact system before but as
you said it does have it's problems. The second sensor is to light
the path along the landing in a similar fashion in conjunction with
door contacts to cover "blind" areas without having lots of
motion
sensors.
Mark.
