I have seen older posts on this and other forum discussing this issue but I haven't been able to find a definitive answer (this forum suggested an answer, but it has not been confirmed). When using an Off-the-Shelf Motion/Daylight Sensors (like you might find in a big box store) that may have either a mechanical or triac switch, can I use a solid state relay like an Opto-22 120A10 (see link below) as a complete solution for driving multiple diverse loads (e.g., incandescent light, LED light and a small motor or transformer for 12v lights) off the same circuit? Will that take care of the feedback, chatter, flicker and other issues? For example, can I run the 120v output (up to 250W) coming out of the Off-the-Shelf Motion/Daylight Sensor switch (that usually runs incandescent lights) to the control of the Opto-22 and then run power (from the same circuit that is running the motion sensor) through the Opto-22 switch contacts to various loads (e.g., incandescent light, LED light and a transformer for 12v lights) without problems?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts on this,
