Mine didn't light up for a bit- until I accidentally clunked someone with it. Oops- looks like your is defective.

Mine worked fine. If you don't see a light inside the unit when you plug it in, either the unit is defective or it not connected properly.

No, a light should come on. Should heat up instantly. Something's defective. Too bad - take it back?

check and see if there is a o ring on the back.. the cover may be tight. Turn it back till light goes off, than push on end cap switch and see if laser goes on.

Not wanting to look directly into it, I used a mirror from the side to check . All my lights were on, more than ten. I would call the company to see what they say. I've used mine successfully so far. Good luck.

That's what I wondered too, if it needed to "warm up" first, or be in an extra-dark room. You may have a faulty one too like me. I had to tap on it near the bottom & turn it upside down & hold it it at an angle to get it to light up-not what you should do to make it work! Email Amazon & they'll fwd it to Scientifics & they should email you back w/phone #. I called them today & they said Fedex would pick it up next day & send me another one. So hope next one works! Good luck with yours! :)

I tried that also but the true test is when it got dark and the light did come on and wentoff in the morning. My bulb did stop working however after a few weeks so I used the return service at Amazon. They replaced it and the new bulb has been working great!

I just tried pulling the plug, then plugging it back in. Obviously it turned off when the power was cut, but it won't come back on until the power button on the light itself is pressed.

Mine worked fine. Maybe its the light bulb that needs to be replaced. I don't know how to do that. Return it if you can.

mine won't even turn on. I don't know if the indicator light is just weak or what but right now its doa. and what do you do when the battery runs out?

I'd do this: Buy a replacement battery and try it to see if it works. Eventually you'll need an extra battery anyhow. If it doesn't work, return the light. If it does work, keep it. The time spent returning the item over just a bad battery probably isn't worth the time and effort.

Check to verify the circuit has power and if it does, replace the entire light. Reminder: The photo cell will only turn the light on at night and then only after a time delay and a functioning ballast. (Ballast is probably the problem and most easily fixed by replacement of the entire light. Save the photo cell as a spare.)

I've noticed mine does not start up very well. Twist the bulb as if removing and then reinstall. It won't start immediately. Also, the indicator is not an LED like it looks, just a lens to the inside. Turn of the lights or shield ambient light, it might be on, you just can see it.

Did you just buy it? If yes let the charge waste all the way and when it is done put it on charge if it charges it then the charge works but the light feature is defective. You can always contact the seller and request a replacement and if it was sold by amazon call them and tell them that you are disappointed and you want a new one with next day shipping at no charge and they will accept because it is their fault. If it is a 3rd party seller ask them to ship one at now charge to you and if they say no then threaten them with a 1 star rating. Good luck

It sounds like either a bad connection, or there's a problem with the rheostat. I would unplug the unit, remove the bulb and try to reseat it. If that doesn't work, try a different bulb. If that doesn't work, try leaving the light on at half strength and see what happens.

Try 2 things: Check the switches on the light to make sure they are in the on position. Check the light bulb.
