ALUSSO WL-YDR-230P Motion Sensor Floodlight, 3 Modes, 3 CCT, 3,500 Lumens

Two adjustable LED heads let you aim light toward separate parts of an outdoor area, such as a driveway and entryway. The ALUSSO WL-YDR-230P adds motion sensing and three operating modes for different lighting needs. Could one fixture handle both routine dusk-to-dawn lighting and motion-triggered use? Its selectable settings are designed to do that, with hardwired installation rather than a plug or battery.

Where it shines

This 30W floodlight is intended for outdoor locations including porches, garages, gardens, driveways, and entrances. Its two adjustable heads can be directed independently, and the listed 100-degree beam angle helps cover the areas you choose to illuminate. The motion detector has a 150-degree sensing angle and a stated range of up to 40 feet in Auto mode, making it relevant for a path or garage approach where light is useful when movement is detected.

The three modes serve different routines: Dusk to Dawn turns the light on at sunset and off at sunrise, Auto activates in response to motion, and On Time keeps it on under manual wall-switch control, with the sensor disabled. Three selectable color temperatures—3000K, 4000K, and 6500K—let you choose between warmer and cooler white light. The claimed output is 3,500 lumens, so this is aimed at area lighting rather than a small decorative accent.

Customer feedback tends to favor the available settings, sensor function, and perceived brightness, and some buyers describe installation as straightforward. Reports about how long the light stays on are mixed, however. The unit offers adjustable time settings, but those differing experiences are worth keeping in mind if consistent shutoff behavior is a priority.

Who it’s for

This makes the most sense for someone planning a fixed outdoor light near a home entrance, garage, or driveway and able to connect it to household wiring. It is not a plug-in, battery-powered, or solar light, so it suits a permanent installation better than a spot without wiring. The sensor’s duration can be set from 10 seconds to 10 minutes, while its light-sensitivity setting ranges from 5 to 2,000 lux. The listed recommended installation height is 6.56–9.84 feet, these controls provide setup choices, not a guarantee that every placement will detect movement the same way.

What to clarify

How is the light powered? It connects to 120V AC wiring and is designed for hardwired installation. It does not use a battery, solar power, or a plug. Quick-connect terminals are included, the standard 3-inch or 3.5-inch round junction box mentioned for installation is not included.

What do the three modes do? Dusk to Dawn runs from sunset to sunrise, Auto responds to detected motion, and On Time leaves operation to the wall switch while disabling motion sensing.

Can the light color and sensor settings be changed? The back dip switch selects 3000K, 4000K, or 6500K. In Auto mode, the detection range, light sensitivity, and duration also have adjustable settings.

When it makes sense

Worth considering if you want a hardwired floodlight with motion response, two aimable heads, and selectable white color temperatures in one fixture. Compared with a basic fixed-output light, its modes offer more control over when it operates, compared with a portable or solar option, it requires a wired mounting location. You may want to skip it if you need a plug-in or battery-powered light, or if you cannot provide a suitable hardwired installation point.
