  1. Frequently Asked Questions

What type of sensor is the Lightcloud Sensor?

PIR (Passive Infrared) and microphonic sensing are used for the Lightcloud Sensor. The standard Sensor is ideal for 9-12ft mounting heights. The High Bay (PIR and sound) Sensor covers mounting heights up 48 feet. We anticipate offering other sensor types in the future.
