I installed four rechargeable motion sensor lights in our hallway closet last week. They keep popping on around 2 a.m. even when the door is closed. I thought it might be the air vent moving clothes so I moved the hangers and even taped a sleeve. I charged them fully and set them to low sensitivity. Still getting random activations! The lights are the type with magnetic strips and a tiny PIR sensor. I can return them if needed, but I’d rather fix it since cutting new adhesive would be a hassle. Would covering part of the sensor or adding diffuser tape help. Help before I return them!
