Replacement PIR?

I need to replace the PIR sensor in my Trieste Outdoor Wall Lantern. There is no manufacturer on the box it simply states 'Imported by Ring Lighting Leeds' . I've tried ring but got no joy.

Any ideas?

You could buy a stand alone sensor and wire that into your lantern but it's usually quicker and as cheap to buy a new lantern.

Ring import chinese products, you have no chance of getting spares. Bin it, or use a separate PIR to do the switching. Using a seperate PIR often allows the sensor to be better positioned then with the "all in ones"

Don't bother looking for a new PIR...either rob one from a similar fitment (if you want to keep the original lamp style) or replace the complete unit.
