To install two motion-activated switches on a 3-way circuit, you will need to replace both existing switches with motion-activated switches. Make sure to install the switches according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically connecting the common wire, traveler wires, and ground wire. Ensure that the motion sensors are compatible with a 3-way circuit before installing.

Yes, there are sirens designed to be screwed into light sockets, commonly used for motion-activated light fixtures. These sirens typically have a built-in sensor that triggers it in response to motion detection, deterring potential intruders or alerting occupants. It's important to check compatibility with your specific light fixture before purchasing.
Main switches typically lift up to turn on because this motion is more intuitive and easier to identify as an "on" position. Other switches may be designed to move downward to differentiate them from main switches and provide a clear distinction between different functions or circuits.
To effectively keep foxes out of your yard, you can install a fence that is at least 6 feet high, secure any potential food sources such as pet food or garbage, and use motion-activated lights or sprinklers to deter them. Additionally, removing any hiding spots like brush piles can make your yard less attractive to foxes.
Sensor lights cannot typically be used like normal toggle switches because they are designed to automatically turn on and off based on motion detection. However, some sensor lights may have a manual override option that allows you to control them like a normal light switch when needed.
