I wanted to control my outside house lights with a motion detector with the minimum of rewiring and fuss; the SL-6053 does accomplish this goal. You simply replace your existing wall switch with the controller, just like installing a dimmer switch. You then mount the battery-operated wireless motion/daylight sensor to cover the desired area and that's it. You can choose to configure the light to be either off or dim when untriggered and to turn on to full brightness when motion is triggered. You can select the duration the lights stay on at full brightness until returning to the untriggered state. A light sensor ensures the unit stays off during the daytime. You can also use the larger of the two switches to manually turn on or off the lights; when turned on, it stays on; when turned off, the system again responds to motion detection. I had difficulties using the mode when the lights are just dimmed in untriggered mode. They did not seem to trigger properly and did not turn off during the day. I now use the mode where the lights are turned off in the untriggered mode and everything works fine. I have noticed that the motion detector is very sensitive and I had to set it to its lowest sensitivity setting to avoid continuously tripping on. After several months the unit still works well and I still don't know how often I will need to replace the batteries in the motion sensor (not hard to do). Although a little quirky, this device really is a simple and workable drop-in solution to achieve motion/light sensor control for existing home wiring. Also, since the unit includes dimmer settings, you should use incandescent or halogen bulbs, not CFLs. I would welcome a simple on/off version of this unit without dimmer to use with CFLs.
