Not that i know much about sensors or electronics, but i believe this would be a bit harder to implement, the modules that come out of home lights have a set of resistors and other small bit built into a small circuit. that is a really good price, however!

hello there jaime,
I have just recently bought 15 I.R. sensors for an installaition I
am
working on. I found two for around the $5-$6 range

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.10082
i went with the first link because it is a rabbit, of course.
shouyld get them in a week or two.
i know a bit about hackingt them(not too hard to do it seems)
let me know how this project comes along as we might end up being a valuable resource to one another.
