The Good:
Compact Comes with a very easy to use software Very good value for the money

The Bad:
I purchased 3 units. Even with the sensitivity set all the way up one of the devices would not register the same low light level as the other two

The Bottom Line:
Very good product & if lighting is a significant portion of energy cost then this is a must have in your tool kit.
