It would need to be able to handle 250 watts. There are a couple of things to consider........
A regular pull switch switches the live only. A PIR might possibly need a neutral as well. Should be no problem in a ceiling though.
Also, check the length of time it stays on......... nod off in the bath, and you'll be waving your arms around trying to get it to come back on ;o)
