Troubleshooting Your Feit Electric LED Smart Flood Light with Camera: Why It's Not Turning On or Off as Expected

Are you experiencing issues with your Feit Electric Smart Security Flood Lights not triggering on or off as expected? This article will guide you through some troubleshooting steps to help resolve the problem.

Firstly, ensure that your device location is properly set up in the Feit Electric app. Configuring the location improves the device's ability to accurately determine the onset of Dusk or Dawn. To do this, access Location Management in the Profile menu and create a new location under the PROFILE section in our Feit Electric app.

Another crucial step is to ensure that your motion sensor is positioned parallel to the ground and mounted 9 feet above the ground for best results. Additionally, install the Flood Light in a location where the sensor at the bottom of the unit is not being obstructed, which may cause the 'Dusk/Dawn' sensor to operate erratically.

It's also essential to note that by default, the Flood Light operates in 'Dusk/Dawn' mode and will not light up during the day time. However, if motion is detected, the light stays ON during the day time. Conversely, at night, the Flood Light will turn on when motion is triggered and turn off after 1, 5, or 10 minutes depending on your settings.

If you're still experiencing issues with your Flood Light, ensure that it's not stuck in a specific mode. The light may be set to turn ON only during certain hours of the day or night. Check your app settings to confirm this.

To further troubleshoot the issue, check if there are any firmware updates available for your device. Sometimes, updating the firmware can resolve connectivity and functionality issues.

If none of these steps resolve the problem, it may be worth restarting your device or resetting it to its default settings. This will vary depending on the specific model of your Flood Light, so refer to the user manual or online documentation for guidance.

In summary, a properly set up location in the Feit Electric app and correct positioning of the motion sensor are crucial for optimal performance of your Smart Security Flood Lights. By following these troubleshooting steps, you should be able to resolve any issues with your device not turning on or off as expected.
