Is this model instant on.

I don't notice a delay between flipping the switch and seeing light. I just checked.
1488506
yes. I installed > 70 of them inside my home as well as on front and back patios (under overhang). I am very pleased. I don't notice delay at all in turning on.

No it is not, but it starts at first or second pull every time (just push the gasoline priming pump a couple times first)

Yes! That is why I bought it. It also has pull start if needed. Great product!

mine was ready to go when I opened it up and turned it on...I live in Jersey, I bought one for my father who used it here in jersey and then went to florida and used it there too...no problems from what I see...

It's not instant on, but I think it takes it more like 4 or 5 seconds to 'boot up'. If you're in the middle of a story it'll come right back to where you left off and be ready to roll. I've had 10 or so of these over the years including earlier models and it's my favorite by far. Cheers, jc

I will double check but I believe in the manual, there is a manual turn on mode. Let me check tonight.

Yes it is ON-OFF-ON, No matter what the description says, but it works fine for my application.

No! It is not momentary! Its a normal on off switch that is on the floor and is activated by your foot. Works well at my home.

It takes a few seconds after pressing either the on or off button for the mechanism to move the light switch. It does not bother me that it is not instantaneous.

It's on as soon as you plug in power. Just take the little rubber lense cap off.

Yes. It would be a very quick on and off transition. However, I returned mine because it wouldn't work unless It was plugged in. It was probably a defect in mine, but be wary.

I believe that there is a pretty significant time delay built into these things. They are not "instant ON" and "instant OFF". I think I would put black electrical tape over the sensor, then wait for a bit after you energize it to give it time to "decide" that it should switch on. If it doesn't come on 5 minutes or less, I'd guess that it has failed. If that's the case, the manufacturer likely owes you a new one!

Yes. It automatically turns on when you step on it. And then turns off when it's not in use for about 10-15 seconds.

Check the internet for that model. I use the self timer and duck back in the shot.

No, mine turns right on. May need to check your ground wire and also the remote wire.

it does not turn on instantly, but turn on right away, there is a hesitate about half or one second.
