    — Why Install

    Why Install Motion Sensor Lighting

    200 amps has become the standard electrical service size for modern homes, providing enough capacity to comfortably run central air conditioning, electric water heaters, EV chargers, home additions, and multiple high-draw appliances simultaneously without overloading your system. Many homes throughout Snohomish and King Counties — particularly those built before the 1990s — were originally wired with 100-amp or even 60-amp service, which was adequate for the electrical demands of that era but falls short of what modern households require.

    A 200 amp panel upgrade gives you the headroom to add an EV charger without straining your system, run central air conditioning alongside your existing electrical loads, support a home addition or finished basement with its own dedicated circuits, add a hot tub, workshop, or other significant electrical load, and generally operate your home's electrical system without the frequent breaker trips and circuit limitations that plague undersized panels.

    Beyond capacity, a 200 amp panel upgrade replaces aging electrical components with modern equipment that includes important safety features unavailable in older panels, providing better protection against electrical fires and shock hazards throughout your home.

    Call us anytime at (425) 371-8570 to discuss motion sensor lighting for your home.

    —Motion Sensor

    Our Motion Sensor Lighting Installation Process

    Our motion sensor lighting installation process begins with evaluating your property to identify the best locations for motion-activated fixtures based on your security priorities and how you use different areas of your property after dark. We assess entry points, driveways, walkways, and other areas that would benefit from motion-activated illumination, determine appropriate fixture placement and sensor coverage angles, and plan wiring for new fixtures or evaluate existing circuits for fixture upgrades.

    The installation process involves mounting motion sensor fixtures at the correct height and angle for optimal detection range and coverage, wiring fixtures to new or existing circuits with proper weatherproof connections, adjusting sensor sensitivity and detection range to minimize false triggers from pets, passing cars, or wind-blown vegetation, and setting appropriate light duration and dusk-to-dawn photocell settings if included.

    We install motion sensor lighting from trusted manufacturers, selecting fixtures with the coverage range, brightness, and features that best match each installation location's specific needs.

    Panels and breakers also age, and some older models are more prone to nuisance tripping or, conversely, to failing to trip when they should — both of which we can evaluate during a visit.

    Ready to install motion sensor lighting? Call us anytime at (425) 371-8570 for a free estimate.

    —Motion

    Motion Sensor Lighting for Security

    Security-focused motion sensor lighting is typically installed at entry doors, garages, driveways, and other access points where sudden illumination can deter unwanted activity and alert homeowners to movement on their property. We install bright, wide-coverage motion sensor fixtures at these key locations, often combined with dusk-to-dawn photocell settings that ensure the lights are active and ready to respond throughout all nighttime hours.

    Want to improve your home’s security with motion sensor lighting? Call us anytime at (425) 371-8570 

    —Lighting

    Motion Sensor Lighting for Walkways and Dark Areas

    Dark side yards, walkways, and areas between structures often benefit from motion sensor lighting that provides illumination exactly when needed without lights running continuously all night. We install fixtures calibrated for these transitional spaces, providing safe, well-lit passage through your property's darker areas whenever movement is detected.

    Have dark areas around your property that need lighting? Call us anytime at (425) 371-8570.

    —Sensor

    Smart Motion Sensor Lighting

    Many modern motion sensor fixtures include smart features that go beyond basic motion detection, including smartphone notifications when motion is detected, integration with home security systems and smart home platforms, adjustable sensitivity and detection zones controlled through an app, and the ability to remotely turn fixtures on or off regardless of motion detection. We install smart motion sensor lighting systems that give you enhanced control and awareness of activity around your property.

    Interested in smart motion sensor lighting? Call us anytime at (425) 371-8570 .

    —Upgrading

    Upgrading Existing Fixtures with Motion Sensors

    Many homeowners already have outdoor fixtures that lack motion sensor capability, and upgrading these existing lights is often more cost-effective than installing entirely new fixtures. We can upgrade many existing outdoor fixtures with motion sensor functionality, or replace outdated fixtures entirely with modern motion-activated equipment that provides better performance and reliability.

    Want to add motion sensors to your existing outdoor lights? Call us anytime at (425) 371-8570 .

    —Permits

    Motion Sensor Lighting Permits

    Most motion sensor lighting installations using existing circuits do not require permits, though projects involving new dedicated circuits or significant electrical work may require permitting depending on scope and local jurisdiction requirements throughout Snohomish and King Counties. We advise you clearly on whether your specific project requires a permit and handle all necessary permitting when required.

    Honest and Upfront We were dealing with a shorted circuit in our house for going on a month and every other electrician that came out for a quote to fix the issue would cost me 250+ ending with an astronomical quote. This was not only frustrating but costing me a fortune and making the problem less traceable the more each company had their hands on it. I called REddie Electric and, after a few general questions on the issue and house, Eddie was able to give me a solid quote on replacing the outdated and rusted panel box along with the circuit to restore the power to the spare room in our house. We were scheduled within a week and the process spanned over 2 days with power only being out for a total of 7 hours on day 2. They replaced our outdated 125 amp panel box with a new 200 amp panel box and quickly discovered a solution to the circuit problem that had been bugging us for weeks. The electricians Vadim and Yasir were super respectful of our home and always kept us in the loop with what’s going on. Communication was never a problem and was always super fast and friendly.

    The electrician, Vadim, who worked at my place was friendly and professional. My 5 smoke detectors were replaced with the newest model and everything was cleaned up afterward. I also had a surge protector installed in my circuit panel box.

    Vadim and Yasir came out to replace and rewire a faulty GFCI receptacle and they were super quick and efficient in getting it completed. I had a couple of questions regarding quotes and different available options, and they were knowledgeable and kind in answering all of them. Will use their services again!

    Excellent support from REddie! Had a mysterious electrical issue with 5 receptacles in a 48 year old home that has had multiple projects. Timely response, extensive troubleshooting resources spent identifying a rather obscure location for a loose neutral. Vadim & Yasir were friendly, professional and highly effective. Identified and Updated some code issues in the process.

    Eddie was an absolute pleasure to work with. Due to a scheduling mix-up, I found myself in a real bind, with other workers scheduled for the following day who couldn’t do their jobs until I had electricity run above my fireplace. Eddie went out of his way to rearrange his schedule and somehow managed to get someone to my house within just a couple of hours. The electrician he sent—I wish I could remember his name—did an excellent job. He asked lots of questions to make sure everything was done exactly the way I wanted it, carefully measured and double-checked the placement before drilling, and the finished work looks beautiful. He also cleaned everything up thoroughly before he left. I really appreciated Eddie going above and beyond to help me out on very short notice. Great service, excellent workmanship, and a company I would definitely use again.

    I found REddie Electric on a Google search looking to update all 9 of the hardwired smoke detectors in my home. Communication has been exceptional, I have been able to text with questions and requests, and received prompt responses, this quality of communication is really important in my world! I received a quote quickly for installation of 9 hardwired “smart” detectors, and was required to pay a 30% deposit to schedule. Yasir arrived on time, was professional, and did an excellent job with installation, testing and clean up. Wonderful attention to detail and was kind enough to greet all my cats and allow them to “help out”. He connected all detectors to my WiFi and Ring app. I really appreciate the ability to be notified of alarms when I am away from my home, and to be able to turn them off without having to push the physical button. I highly recommend REddie Electric, and will use them in the future for other services they offer.

    I'm new to the Area and Found REddie Electric LLC on Google. Submitted them a request to install a 240v outlet in the garage in order to have an EV car charger. They responded back super quick and gave me a solid fair quote for the work. I gave them a call and Eddie told me he'd be out the next morning. Super transparent communication. Pricing is great, and the work was done in a very timely manner. Eddie has a great work ethic and professional outlook on the jobs he takes. I'll definitely be back for more jobs.

    Eddie is an absolute rock star! If you need an electrician, look no further, this guy is a wizard when it comes to installing backup generators. From start to finish, Eddie was fast, efficient, and incredibly knowledgeable. Not only did he get the job done flawlessly, but he also went above and beyond to ensure everything was safe and up to code. If you want someone who's professional, skilled, and genuinely cares about their work, Eddie is your guy. I can't recommend him enough.

    Motion sensor lighting can improve visibility, provide convenient automatic illumination, and help reduce unnecessary lighting when an area is unoccupied. It can also support home security by illuminating entryways, walkways, driveways, and other areas when movement is detected.
    Motion sensor lights can be installed in various locations, including front entrances, garages, driveways, backyards, walkways, hallways, and selected indoor spaces. The appropriate fixture and sensor depend on the location, intended coverage, and environmental conditions.
    Common options include outdoor floodlights, wall-mounted security lights, porch lights, pathway lights, and indoor ceiling fixtures. Some lights have built-in motion sensors, while others use separate sensors connected to compatible lighting fixtures.
    Motion sensor lights detect movement using technologies such as passive infrared (PIR), microwave sensing, or other compatible detection methods. When movement meets the sensor's activation settings, the light switches on and remains illuminated for a preset period or according to its configured controls.
    Yes, motion sensor lighting is commonly used outdoors to illuminate entrances, garages, driveways, and walkways. Outdoor fixtures and sensors must be rated for their installation environment and installed with appropriate weather protection and electrical connections.
    In many situations, motion sensor lights can replace conventional outdoor fixtures or be incorporated into an existing lighting setup. The appropriate solution depends on the existing wiring, fixture compatibility, desired lighting behavior, and whether continuous or motion-activated illumination is preferred.
