Motion sensor on mercury wall pack?
I found this on my uncle's house (first time I visited since he moved). I didn't ask him if it worked. It appears that the fixture itself has a built-in photocontrol and the external control is actually a PIR (motion sensor). The lamp inside is a clear 175w mercury. I can't see why someone would set up a fixture this way.

A mercury fixture... a totally relevant application for motion sensors, of course! xD

That there is the HPS lamp simulator, it's used to simulate the cycling of your typical EOL HPS lamp. Laughing

* DISCLAIMER: Using this device may require more frequent replacement of ignitor and/or lamp. xD
