How are the lights controlled? Do we have to flip a switch? What kind of batteries?

There is a little button to push near the top of the rocket (on the yellow part). I can't imagine anyone could use it enough to exhaust the light! Note that all instructions are printed on the box.

There is a little button to turn on the light. I would advise against buying this though, as the lights make the rockets too heavy. Just get the regular ones - they are much better!

Lights are controlled by a botton switch, and the batteries are not replacable do to child safety as I've been told. The rocket is quite heavy, has only a white light, and doesn't fly very high. I've bought many different styles of rocket toys so I can tell you the best & highest flying, light weight, with flashing colored lights rocket that I would suggest is called "Skylight Rocket" and I bought them on Amazon also... we love them. Hope this info helps!

There is a photo sensor which you can set to turn on and off the lights. It also can be set by number of hours by digital selection. I usually set my for 4 hours when I use it.

The control is a single toggle switch. You wire it directly to the battery with an inline fuse. It does have two small led lights that operate via a red button, but I really haven't used them yet.

There is a small on/off switch on the top of the light. It's very easy for kids to use.

If you put the light on a switch, you can control the light manually by turning the switch on/off/on. If you do not have the light on a switch you can put the light in test mode to keep the light on, but you need to be able to reach the light to do that.

The lights are motion activated. They stay on for 1 min. Well lit. A good buy.

If you can figure out how to get them to fly (there are no directions and we failed several times before hitting on th right combination of movements) the lights will go til the batteries die, you can turn them off between uses.

There is no on/off switch. You have to plug or unplug them. Or plug them into an outlet that is controlled by a switch. Or plug into a power strip that has a on/off switch. Or to get fancy, a remote controlled power strip. The button on the light set controller only controls the flash pattern. There's your answer and a few suggestions. That should help you out.

You put batteries in the base and on the top of the light somewhere around the circumference there is a button you just push to turn it on.

Hello - Good question, as they appear not to have a way to operate them. At the back end of the flashlight is a slightly raised, round black object. That's the button, which is actually underneath that surface. Just push down on it to turn the light on or off.

The lights have an on/off switch. It's not like a off camera flash. So they're constantly on.

It has a switch. You could press on it to turn it off and on and also dim it. A lot of light. Great light for the price.

The lights will turn on whenever there is a movement. It does not seem to affect the battery life though.

you can get a table lamp or a powerful flashlight, and direct the light from it right at the battery. then the robot will move. when you remove the light it will stop. that's a great way to play indoors

It is a wired switch. The only way you'll be able control a light that is only wired to one switch is to run a new set of wires to the new location or replace the existing switch with one that has a remote control.

Like the others said, they take 3 AAA batteries. These lights are sold by different merchants, some supply batteries, some do not. Check the description to see if yours will come with batteries. TIP: Swap out the batteries with Duracell or other long lasting batteries when you get the light. I use the batteries sent with the light in my kids toys/small electronics.Also, there appears to be a modified version of this light where you can remove the cover over the batteries by hand (no need for screwdriver).

The remote control is battery powered. The light has to be attached to a power source. You have to attach your own cord to it. We have it mounted in an old oak tree and it's beautiful.
