Blinking LED 120 v floodlights on a photo cell.

[Stevenfyeager]

Replaced exterior 120 v LED floodlights and replaced photo cell. Lights blink about every five seconds. Any suggestions? Thank you.

It sounds like the photocell is responding to its own light.

2-wire or 3-wire photo cell? 2-wire photo cells and small LED drivers frequently don't get along.

Wouldn’t be the 1st time.
A short piece of black tape works as a test.

First I saw one was in a wall pack. Tiny little sucker.
