PIR and timed Photocell in one light??

Hi All

As the title shows, is there a PIR sensor with a built in timed Photocell so that I can leave the light on permenantly and the Dawn to Dusk sensor in the photocell will switch on the light for lets say 6 hours and then switch it off. The PIR should work there after.

Has anyone come across one of these?? Also, if not, is it possible to connect a PIR and a photocell in line to enable this??

Thanks
Raj

Yep... that is the exact feature but I want it without the light. I want to use it with a lantern light by the front door so can't use a Flood light.

thanks

Thanks for your reply... It does not allow me to let the photocell switch the light on at Dawn and automatically switch it off after 6 hours or something like that regardless of when Dusk is... something like this but with a PIR

Cheers
