How to operate it? I stand on it and it keeps in dark and does not give any number. Thanks.

I know this will sound stupid but did you place the batteries in it properly?You just stand on it with your toes over it and heels behind it. The center of your foot just rests on the scale

Are you sure you have working batteries in it? I'd check that first.You also have to stand on it a few seconds before the numbers appear.It initially should be set by standing on it until it starts toregister the weight and, then, get off it and wait for it to displayO. You can then weigh yourself. If you move the scale at all, resetit. Also, it really needs to be on a flat hard surface. (Don't recallwhether the scale came with a tab that needed to be removed for thebatteries to work or not but, again, I'd check the batteries first.)Finally, the display is not baclit, so needs to be viewed in areasonably lighted area. Hope this helps. Are you sure you have working batteries in it?

Check the battery first. Then check the instructions to see if you followed it correctly.

Maybe it needs a new battery. Mine starts reading immediately. Then takes about 3 seconds to find your exact weight.

Maybe the battery is dead or in wrong? Otherwise I think yours is broken. I just stand on it and it works every time.

You turn it on by inserting the pin in the hall just left to light sensor. Watch it come on at dark in not insert the pin again. It works great. I bought more

Tap once on the silver base is for dim. Tap another time it gets brighter, the third tap is the brightest. When it is at the brightest tap one more time and it switches off. Then u start over again! Hope it helps :)

Dial behind sight has a dial on it... 0 is off. Battery could be dead like mine.

Sorry i set my timer to run during the night and i have never checked to see it it is functing correctley. Instructions were shipped with the device and it was simple to set ( I think.) I will try to check it this up an comming week end. Then I will get back to you later on this site if you don't already have the solution.

You just tap it once it's turned on. I show it in action in my video review on here. It's not much of a nightlight though.

i think when u turn it on it zeros itself. Otherwise I can't find a way to do it

The unit may need to charge up first. The unit should light up provided (1) battery has juice ; (2) it is dark[ possibly indicated by the solar cells producing zero voltage]. When (3) motion is detected [sensor to the right of the on/off pin hole], the light should switch from a dull glow to a brighter light, for about 15-30 seconds. So, if you have left the unit in the sun for a while, then bring it into a dark room it should glow; when you wave your hand under it, it should light up more brightly for a little while.

Honestly, I cannot see it in the dark. My ++ review was based on ease of installation. Maybe if it was exposed to light it would glow. Unfortunately, how do you expose it to light in the dark? Sorry I could not help. I am staying with the factory sight.

Its easy! The switch on the right hand side turns it either on at all times (up position) or on the timer (down position). To set the timer, spin the dial to what ever time it is now, as you can see there are numbers 1-12. The dark side represents night time. each notch represents 15 minute interval. Raise the notches to the time you want the power to be on, all the rest have them pushed in. The dial when plugged in moves very slowly because essentially its rotating in a 24 hour period. You can plug it in, raise notches and spin the dial to test it out! Good luck!

Figured it out!! You have to press the V/S button on the back of the clock. I pressed it once and something like '--5D' displayed (can't remember exactly what it displayed) and now it stays on lit all the time!! :D

Cannot help. Unit I own is older model that employs a pilot light and no batteries. Sorry.

I think they have redesigned this light- mine arrived today and I charged it up per instructions before first use and just tried it out. The light is trigger operated now instead of the dial control that is mentioned in earlier reviews. Pull the trigger once and it comes on at the brightest setting (really bright), pull it again and it goes to a lower brightness setting which would be good for up close work. The light stays on until you pull the trigger again, so yes, it will stay on until you turn it off.

Twist the head about a quarter turn to start the light in Low. Turn it off and on again, and it is on medium. Turn off and on again and it is on high. Fairly easy to do with one hand (although it is a little stiff for the first few turns, then it gets better). Its a very good light. PS - When I say "head" I am refering to the portion with the bulb in it.

There is a little pull tab on the back of the scale. If that doesn't start it up then replace the batteries. To power on each time you have to tap on it.

Turn the bezel around the bulb. This may take a try or two until you get the feel for it. If that doesn't work, there's a battery or bulb problem. I love the flashlight!

With lights etc away from you there are two buttons the one on the left turns it on and off (you have to hold it down for a while mine works only with the monitor flipped down) the right is sort of an "enter" key, use to set items in menu, with menu off it is like the mode button. In the menu, change motion detection off and the unit will stay on all the time till you turn it off) The battery I got will not charge to the third bar, doesn't last long and I can not find a battery anywhere to replace it.
