When you set the color with the controller and then turn on and off the power to the light from a switch will the light keep it's color setting ???

No, it does not. I sent that question to the manufacturer and they never responded. It always starts up in the same flashing mode and the only way I can get to a slow phasing setting or static color setting is to change it every time with the remote. I don't use it now that much because of that unfortunately. I am not happy with that limitation and will not be buying another one.

Yes. It will keep the color until you change it with a remote. looking at the other answers, I guess we got lucky. we bought in two segments and have over twenty and they all keep the color.

Yes. You can set it to automatically change colors, stay on on one color or turn all the lights off.

The ones I received do NOT remember how they were set when the power is turned off and on. They always start out cycling all the colors. If you use the ON and OFF on the remote but leave the power on, they DO remember the last setting.

Not necessary to change colors, but a whole lot easier than flipping the switch a certain number of times to get it to change color. Light instructions tell to change color by turning power on/off a set number of times (actually quite inconvenient).

This controller is a simple color fader. As far as calling up built in programs in the light, I would say it probably won't work.

The controller remembers it is no issue at all. And so u know as well if u move the controller to another area of this lighting and plug it in it will still hold that same color u last set.

No, not with the one I bought. Just an on-off switch. The color changing is relaxing, however.

No it wont.. But if u didn't already know. The light bar uses about 80% of the power. So if it seems like ur battery is dyin faster it's because the battery is gettin old & it's time to invest in another controller. Cause the newer the controller the better the battery life... Hope this helps

I was really interested in this question before I bought these bulbs so I'll try not to over complicate this answer haha: If the bulb is on and you cut power to the bulb using your house light switch or lamp switch the last setting is forgotten and when power is turned back on to the bulb it will default to the strobe setting. If you turn the bulb off with the included remote and turn the bulb back on with the included remote it will remember the last setting. If you turn the bulb off with the included remote and then cut power via lamp switch, then turn lamp switch on and then turn on bulb with remote it will remember last setting. SHORT ANSWER: If you turn off with remote - YES it remembers last setting If you turn off power with lamp switch - No it forgets last setting

I don't use a controller for these, so I'm not familiar with that operation. I find them easiest to use with sound mode or constant color. I use my controller for other lights that require more control.

yes it changes colors and you can leave it on one color. I would like the darn light to be off (i can't sleep). the off doesn't really mean no light.

No. Whatever light or setting you leave it set before Will be the same each time you turn the lights on. They wont start with default setting

Most wall switches have a LED to know if the device or light they are controlling is on or off, so if you turn on or off that controller from anywhere (manually, other switch, iphone or internet) i will show it

Yes it does I have my lights on a timer also when it goes off, the next day when kicks back on it goes back to the that it was the day before and it will stay that color until you change it

No it doesn't work that way. The lamp does not remember its on/off state. Once disconnected from power, you have to switch it on after connection.

If you set it correctly, when it gets dark it will come on dimly then go bright at the time you select then go dim again when you designate that too. Neat!!

My unit was stuck on red and I disconnected the LED wires and powered the controller up with no lights attached. I then turned it off and reconnected the wires and got it out of the red mode. My unit is now stuck on the color changing cycle. I can't figure out if it's the remote or the controller causing the issue. I have given up and ordered a different LED RGB controller.
