If you charge it, and then plug it into your phone it will turn on automatically. There isn't an on, off switch.

It doesn't have a power button. As long as it's fully charged it will work. When the device itself is charging, there is a red light that comes on and when it is done that goes away and when it's charging your phone there is a blue light that turns on!

It turns on if you press the red part in the center. If you manage to get it on, then you will find out that there is also a flashing mode.

Yes, turns on when you power up. I have not figured out how to manually turn it on yet.

You have to turn it on. It has a few different levels of light depending on how many times you push the button.

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.

To turn it on the switch is on the wire. is like a wheel you have to turn to turn in on or off.

It should automatically come on. If it does not come on, then it's defective.

Very easy. It has a large plastic knob that take multi turns to turn on and off.

I have read that if you reset it, it will turn on. There is a hole in the back behind the on/off button. Stick a paper clip or some other small sharp object in the hole and hold it for a few seconds. I have also read that if you do that while holding down the on/off switch it may come on.

From what I recall the package stated hold it down for 5 seconds to turn on. If it's literally a minute and you're not over exaggerating then is not normal. Try double tapping it, thats how my turns on. Good luck.

Agree with other 2, make sure it charged because that's how you turn it on. I've had no trouble with mine, works beautifully.

When batteries are in the proper position, it will turn on immediately. Use new batteries.

You need press and hold button in order to turn it on. it does not drain your battery.

I thought ours wouldn't turn on unless plugged into the charger, but I eventually figured out that you need to hold down the top and bottom buttons at the same time to turn it on. The instructions don't tell you that.

No, it does not automatically turn on. You have to push the switch forward.

You twist it to the right to turn on and twist left to turn off. It's basically a little screw with a loop at the end. Works good though
