This switch features two selectable modes. In Night Mode (Dark-ON), the light activates when ambient light drops (at dusk) and turns off at dawn. In Day Mode (Light-ON), the light activates during daylight hours and turns off at night. You choose which mode suits your application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: What is the maximum load current this switch can handle?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The switch is rated for a maximum of 5A. However, for safe operation, it is recommended to keep the load current at or below 4A when running at 12V, and at or below 2A when running at 24V to ensure longevity and reliable performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: What is the sensing delay and why does it matter?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The default sensing delay is 30 seconds. This built-in delay prevents the switch from toggling rapidly due to brief or temporary changes in light — such as a passing car's headlights — ensuring stable and reliable automated control of your lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\", \"@type\": \"FAQPage\", \"mainEntity\": [{\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"What voltages does this light sensor switch support?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"The HELTC photocell light sensor switch supports a wide DC voltage range of 3.7V to 24V, making it compatible with 3.7V, 5V, 12V, and 24V systems commonly used in DIY electronics and outdoor lighting projects.\"}}, {\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Can I use this switch for both day and night operation?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"Yes!
