Does the light stay on continuously even after you have parked the car? Would this not wear the batteries out quickly?

The sensor light does not stay on after movement or motion stops. I never timed it, but it goes off after a couple of seconds. Your batteries will last. I haven't replaced mine yet and i still give it 5 stars.

No, it shuts off. been using mine around 2 months now. Seems strong as ever. Anyway I would not care if I had to replace batteries. Works that good and batteries are cheaper than what would happen sooner or later.

No the light automatically shuts off. I have had this for months and still have not changed the battery. I love it!

Mine can last all night long and into dawn if I have them only on motion detector mode. If it is on continuously and is FULLY CHARGED I have had the light stay on for about 6 hours.

When using battery power the backlight stays on for 2 minutes. When using AC power the light stays on continuously. (Unless you turn it off).

Depends on how often it is activated. It runs on 4 C batteries. I've had two outdoor ones in for over a year and have not replaced the batteries yet. The light will be dimmer as the battery power fades. It shouldn't just abruptly stop. Hope this helps.

No, it stays on until you turn it off. This is electric, not battery operated.

Yes, the red reset light stays on, until you "clear" it, but then it comes on with EVERY car that comes in. I think I don't care for that aspect, however, I don't know how they could really improve on it, since it shouldn't clear all by itself, otherwise I wouldn't know if someone has come sin the last time I "reset" it. As soon as you push the red blinking light button, it will shut off and not come on again until someone has passed again.

I have had this light for about 6 months and it is still working. Being a solar light it doesn't run out of batteries. The light is not bright but it works well for where I used it.

It only stays on for a second or two. It plays a little tune from the radio. I wish the light would stay on longer but at least it doesn't drain the batteries.

No red light never goes off. That the one of the the negative thing about it. Your not sure when it's fully charged. One thing don't keep the battery charging for over 12 hours it cut the battery life short. One of it's short comings.

Yes as long as you do not turn off then back on quickly it will stay. Mine stays just fine.

My light stays on as long as the unit is plugged in and the battery is attached. I just let it charge for 10 hours before removing. That seems to work. It would be nice if the light went off when it was done, but I donlt think mine does...

Been using it for months - a couple of them in high traffic area - and they are still gong strong. They only stay on for about 20 seconds, after you pass by, and then go out. Shouldn't be a huge drain on the batteries.

It turns off instantly whether you check or uncheck it. The parking mode works only if you have an extended battery. So, don't worry about car battery drain

They stay on as long as they are selected on and the headlights are turned on. Even the parking lights will allow them to remain on.

I agree. You turn the light off and rapidly turn it back on and it will stay on.

I imagine that would depend on the quality of the replaceable batteries that you select to install and how often your light comes on when an object sets it off. The light only stays on for a very short space of time when the person or animal moves out of range. I consider it one of my better buys.

Nope stays on all the time. It comes with a sticker that is supposed to dampen how bright the light is.... The sticker does nothing to stop it.
