I’m replacing the light at my front door, and I dont seem to be able to find what I want.

My current light is solar powered, light and motion sensitive so it only comes on at night and dims when there is no movement. However during winter there isn’t enough light during the day to charge it so that it lasts longer than a couple of hours.

I would like to replace it with a mains powered one, but keeping the only on at night, and dims when there is no movement so that it illuminates the house number. Everything I see appears to only have one or the other (unless they actually have both but the listing details are terrible), does anyone know the terminology I need to use?

    Its not even technically correct, its an answer to a different question.

    A sconce is a type of wall mounted light, nothing to do with PIR for motion detention or any of the other phrases required for a successful search. Now that I have the correct terminology, there are examples that aren’t a sconce.

    So in that sense its actually wrong.
