Motion detector with led bulb

Postby nando » Sun Feb 17, 2013 3:05 am

Hi,
I have an outdoor security motion detector, since I replaced the incandescent bulb with an LED bulb, it does not work properly.
What would I have to do, to the detector to be able to use LED bulbs? Is it due to load?
Thanks in advance
Fernando

More information is needed. Is the LED the same voltage as the original lamp? Is the polarity correct?

The LED bulb is a 115 v a/c same as incandescent bulb. Of course, the led is 15W where the incandescent bulb is 75w.
I think I need a rely controlled detector as opposed to scr
