Hi all,

I have a niggle with one PIR at home - which has no alternative but to see puddles (!) or sunshine on the floor. I've always had an issue with this one sensor and I set the panel to ignore it unless it triggers twice.

That was fine for ages, however now we're into more typical weather it has gone off twice in two days.

I have no experience of dual-mode types but I guess a dual-mode would solve this as the microwave bit would not see any 'movement'. Or I could try to hammer the thing so it doesn't see any part of the floor.

Anyone got any good/bad opinion of dual-mode sensors?

Ta.

It's in an awkward position in order to cover all the doors (3) and windows (2) to the room. I fiddled for a while to get it where it is but it prolly ended up seeing too much floor.  More fiddling may cure the problem but I would rather switch to something less fussy and fiddle with that instead.

I'll get a dual-tech one.
