Can this light be set to simply go 'on and off' when motion is detected; and can it be turned completely off, if needed? Thank You.

Yes, it goes on, then turns off after a specified period. As far as turning it off completely, I do that from the wall switch that controlled the light that was previously there, I'm not sure there is a way to do it from the light.

Yes to both of the questions but to turn it off completely you need to have a light switch hook up.

Yes....light has 3 settings, off, dusk-to-dawn and motion sensor setting. I have mine set to motion sense so the light only turns on when I walk by it and I have it set to stay on for about 30 seconds after I walk away from it

This light has 3 positions switch. In auto position, the light will turn on at night when it detected motion within range (it has light sensor). In manual mode, light stay on like a flashlight. In off mode, unit is off. Hope my answer help.

It turns off automatically after about 30 seconds, unless there's motion. When there's motion, it remains illuminated; turning off after 30 motion free seconds.

OK, I'm confused. Does it stay on as long as it keeps detecting motion, or does it turn off after 10 minutes or so regardless if you are in range or not?

It's not motion detected; it's turned on/off via remote control and stays on until you turn it off. I love it!

You can turn the light off manually, through some other scene/timer, or ... if you want the sensor to turn it off without activity, you can create a scene for "no trigger." In other words, when there is "no trigger" of motion, the scene causes something to happen (like turning off the light).

No, but you can reduce the sensitivity of the motion sensor AND decrease the amount of time it stays bright when triggered. So, the way I have it set, the light comes on at dusk at a low intensity and will stay on continuously until dawn. If you walk directly in front of it, closer than about 5 feet or so, it goes to full brightness, then if the motion is not triggered again, it goes back to the low brightness in about 1 minute or less. When set in this mode, at no time does it completely turn off, unless the batteries are really run down. When you first receive it, the batteries could be really low (mine was) and I thought at first it was defective, until I reread the instructions, and understood how it's programmed to function. The motion sensor has priority, meaning that when the battery gets really low, the light will discontinue the low intensity dusk to dawn mode, and save what power is left to turn on bright when motion triggered..... So be sure to let it charge at least one day in the sun before you turn it to any setting other than off. (Still charges battery when turned to off). Since I have had it it has always remained on until dawn, even with some really cloudy and raining days decreasing its ability to charge. Now if it's motion sensor gets triggered too often, I can see the battery maybe getting rundown..... It this happens you can use another trick I have used before....simply take black electrical tape and tape up a portion of the motion sensor. Covered by black tape it will NOT sense motion.

No it does not work like a motion sensor. It does have a light sensor so if the lights in the room are on the nightlight will turn off. The nightlight will also go off if the sensor is blocked by people walking by it. I would really like to find a nightlight that would only come on when you are near it.

With the switch set to the right place motion will turn the light on at any time. In another position it will come on with motion at night and stay off during the day.

As said below. Read 7.14 of the booklet at the bottom of page 10 and the top of page 11, you just have to set the motion sensor to "off"

The light can be used like a normal light or it can be an automatic motion activated light. One the side where you see the switch, there are 3 positions OFF-ON-Auto. OFF is OFF all the time. ON is ON all the time. AUTO is it will turn ON when it detects motion and then turn off by itself after a few seconds delay from the last detected motion. I hope that helps.

No, it does not have an on/off switch. It is set permanently on "auto", in that it turns on when motion is detected in the near vicinity (i.e. 2-3 feet), and turns off within about 20 seconds after motion ceases. The light tuns-on not only in complete darkness, but also if the surrounding area is lacking direct light from another source (e.g. a partially-lighted room in the daytime).

If your question is, can you turn the light on from a switch and bypass the motion detector.No I dont think so. It's always on and operated by the motion detector.

The instruction manual says: "To disable the motion sensor and keep the light continuously on for the night, flip the wall switch off for 3 seconds and then back on. To reset to Security mode, flip switch again off for 3 seconds and back on. If you leave the light on all night it will automatically turn off at dawn and reset to security mode." I didn't install the light with a wall switch and don't use this feature but have no doubt that it works. I have two of these lights and find them very bright. Don't stare at them or you'll see spots! Cheers, Paul.

There is not an on/off switch for the motion detector. http://www.naturepowerproducts.com/doc_db/2205060ledsolarsecuritylightmanualv1.1-e.pdf

I don't know if it can be set in that way, but I doubt about it. Anyway, light was turn on after a motion was detected in 10s it automatically switch to dim mode. The light will stay on in dim mode until next motion detected.
