Q. I'm sneaking out tonight, and we have security lights in our yard. How do you get past them without making them turn on?
A. best way is to go to your circuit breaker in the garage and find the breaker for the security lights/that side of the house. turn it off. then wala, problem solved.
another way would be to remove the sensor on the lights
remove the light bulbs
avoid the lights/sensor
tape the sensor up (during the day or something)
or as someone else said, avoid emitting Infra red radiation
actually, I think the way you COULD do this seriously, is the following:
find/buy one of those "space blankets". (reflective blankets meant to keep you warm by keeping in all IR heat) you can buy em at walmart and camping store as well as the kennedy space center if your interested haha.
then, cover yourself in it COMPLETELY shielding yourself form the camera, and go for it, walk, dont run, past the sensor, and you may be able to sneak past it because the blanket will hide your IR radiation from view of the sensor.
I haven't tried it, but I think it might work, seeing as how the blankets ar meant to keep IR radiation in. so they wont let it out and will act like a sort of camo from the sensor.
btw, the blankets go for like a max of 20 bucks.
*edit*
The walking slow thing, may work a bit, but you must understand how this stuff works to understand that it wont work well. maybe at all. the security light sensor is looking for a "change" in the IR temperature it is sensing. so if you move really slow, it might not detect a change. but then again, it might. its not worth trying. US a highly reflective material like a space blanket or shiny shiny aluminum.

Does a motion security light necessarily need to be connected to a switch?
Q. I'm wanting to install some motion security lights on the outside of my home. This job can go from easy to totally ridiculous if i have to install a light switch for it.
A. === as a home and business shop wire it myself electrical amateur your best course is to wire it direct and in doing so you must be careful to turn off the breaker and use a junction box or a connection box to follow the AWG wiring codes === American Wiring Guide Codes === the purpose of the box is to be a spark arrestor and tape the wire nuts into place with the black electric tape so if and when you ever sell the home you have done this job correctly ==== NO .... you do not need to have a switch but it should run off a separate breaker if possible [[ for your own safety when doing the wiring ]] respect that power even if it is only 110 volts --- if you already understand most of this and I have been redundant it is meant to help you get it right ....
What shall I do If my security light comes on in my chevy impala?
Q. Im having a passlock problem in my 2002 chevy impala. The security light blinks on and the car wont start. I have to wait like 10 minutes before it resets itself. The dealor says it cost 600.00 to fix and no one else would touch it. Ive called around. Is there an easier way out of this?
A. all chevrolets have this problem, even mine. this summer i found out what my problem was. first the light blinks then, my tahoe woulg turn off while i applied the break peddle. killing all power to vehicle.
chevrolrt dealer told me same thing $600 to fix.
i thought the all\arm system was holding it off, on anti-thift, cause i could hear the alarm box making clicking sounds
the problem with mine was a loose positive battery post.
even tho the post was tight, just wasn't tight enough'
post was tight into the battery, but loose between both cables that hooked to the positive pose, not much just enough to cause problems.
what i did was put a lock washer between both cables, and installed cables in a v shape from bottom looking up.
havent had the problem again.
around here, i know at least 7 people with same problem
give it a try, before spending $600
