Title: Eagle Eye Daylight Modification
Post by: tom j on March 28, 2006, 11:45:53 AM

Hi hay has anyone tried this modification (please see link below) and if so did it correct the false alarms caused by sunlight. If you have any of these you know they are pretty much useless in bright sunlight. I have a wired outdoor motion sensor that never gives false alarms due to sunlight. Hoping for a fix but don't want to go through the expense until I can determine this will correct the problem. Basically just have mine set to "night only" for the ones I have out side with a thin piece of electrical tape across the bottom to prevent false alarms from squires, cats ect. Thanks Guys looking forward to hearing what your experiences have been with the Eagle Eyes.
