Grote Industries recently introduced a new 12-Volt version of its S100 LED WhiteLight surface-mount dome lamp (part 61411). The new lamp features optional, built-in, infrared motion activation, eliminating the need for installation of an independent switch. The lamp is activated using a passive infrared motion sensor located in the lamp body that is calibrated to recognize the heat signature unique to humans, and when it detects movement by a person within six feet, it will immediately turn on.
