I finally figured out why that one sensor kept false alarming

Last month I had a customer in Phoenix whose motion sensor in the garage was going off every morning at 6am. I swapped batteries, changed sensitivity, even put in a brand new unit. Nothing worked until I noticed a gap in the weatherstripping letting in a beam of sunlight right at sunrise. Has anyone else had tricky false alarms that turned out to be something simple like light or reflections?

That sunlight beam thing got me too, but with a reflection off a car windshield...

Ha! Bet that beam of light felt real proud of itself for outsmarting you.
