After a couple years of working fine, my light does not turn on. When I flip the switch, the sensor blinks red multiple times and then stops. I have seen this problem online, but no one has provided an answer. Hopefully the company can help

My defiant DFI-8853 has stopped working is it battery operated. What can I replace it with that uses the same set up.
