The cardboard box of the LED outdoor spotlight from Proxinova is sturdy and has adequately protected the product during transport. This ensured that neither the spotlight itself nor the more sensitive components such as motion sensors or LED lights were damaged by external influences.
The product also impressed in terms of the sustainability of the packaging . The packaging was reduced to the essentials and there was hardly any superfluous packaging waste. The plastic used served to hold small parts such as screws together and protect the lamp, but could be replaced by a more environmentally friendly alternative if necessary. The packaging was also compact, which made both shipping more efficient and disposal easier.
The contents of the packaging were as expected. All the components specified in the product description were present in full. In addition to the LED spotlight, this also included the mounting material such as screws and the self-adhesive 3M pad.
The operating instructions were clear and well structured. It should only be mentioned that it is only available in printed form in English. However, it is possible to access the instructions in four other languages, including German, via a QR code. This could be a little awkward for older people who have difficulties with technical devices, as finding the languages requires some patience. Overall, however, this is not a major obstacle as the instructions are in plain English and are supported by clear pictures.
To summarise, the LED outdoor spotlight from Proxinova offers solid and well thought-out packaging as well as complete and easy-to-install product features.

The motion sensor of the LED outdoor spotlight from Proxinova reacts reliably to different movement patterns.
In terms of light intensity and brightness, the spotlight provided very bright and even illumination overall. Although there was a small blind spot below the spotlight, this only had a minor impact on the overall illumination. The luminosity is more than sufficient for outdoor use, for example for illuminating driveways or gardens, and ensures high visibility in the dark.
Another test point was the waterproofness of the spotlight. There were minimal signs of moisture inside the housing, but the electronics remained completely undamaged and the functionality was not impaired in any way. Both the lighting and the sensors continued to function without restriction, confirming the product’s suitability for outdoor use.
Installation of the outdoor LED spotlight was quick and straightforward. All parts were present as described and the instructions were clear and easy to understand. The spotlight could be safely installed within a maximum of 15 minutes.
In terms of reacting to different movement patterns, the sensor worked perfectly and switched the light on immediately , even with small movements . The sensitivity of the sensor was optimised.
To summarise, it can be said that the LED outdoor spotlight from Proxinova fulfilled expectations in our practical test. The motion sensor works reliably, the light intensity is high and the device also works perfectly in wet conditions. The simple installation and stable performance make the spotlight a recommended choice.

*Themaximum score is 100 points

On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the LED outdoor spotlight from Proxinova with an average of 4.1 out of 5 stars.
Many customers are particularly positive about the fact that the spotlight is small and compact and is powered by AA batteries, which sets it apart from larger and heavier competitor products. The simple installation and the fast response time of the motion sensor, which works reliably and allows the light to shine brightly enough, are also praised. The wireless solution is also appreciated.
The water resistance is often criticised. Some customers report that moisture penetrates the device over time, which damages the electronics and restricts functionality. There are also occasional complaints about the short service life and problems with customer service, especially after the warranty period has expired.
In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the compactness, motion detection and light intensity are to be rated positively. However, the test also showed that there were slight traces of moisture in some places, but this did not affect the functionality in the short time of our test.
Prices of up to around €150 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from around €10 . The LED outdoor spotlight from Proxinova is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €17.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
