Do you really have to take the batteries out to turn it off?

absolutely not, who ever made the statement is in correct. The round button on top in the yellow part of the assembly has four modes, mode 1 single LED, mode 2 double LED, mode 3 all LED lights on, mode 4 is "power off". Hope this helps.

NO - the on/off swtich on top woks fine. It has also 3 levels of brightness - very nice

NO! unless yours is faulty! This light is very durable. the build quality is excellent. And it's ergonomic shape makes is very user friendly.

No. The light has 3 brightness settings. Low, medium, and high. Each click will change the setting. Once you get to the highest brightness, one more click will turn it off. So in short. 4 clicks to turn off.

Streamlight makes a number of different lights, but on the one I own there is a round, black, button on the top of the unit that cycles through three brightness levels and off. Just push the button repeatedly to get the function you want.

Sadly, ypu have to remove the batteries every time you want to turn it off.

Yes, you can turn it off manually by pressing on the bottom on the unit or on the remote. :)

There is no need to turn it off. I've had this for two years and batteries are still working. It goes into a low draw sleep mode. Don't worry about it.

Yes the illumination can be turned off. If you don't want to be tempted to use it don't put the battery in

No, you have to turn it off. You don't need to unplug it from the cigarette lighter to turn it on/off, because it has a main control.

No, it has a little button in the back of the controller that you hold for about 5 sec to shut it off and you just press it to turn it on.

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. You just flip the switch and it comes on flip the switch and it turns off. if your battery runs low or goes out, they're little watch batteries that you could get at any Walgreens or store where you're at.

The only way to shut them off is to remove the batteries, but the drain is very low so it might be easier to just leave them on even if you're not using them. I pulled the batteries for a 4+ month layup but won't pull them again until I'm done traveling in November.

No but there is an automatic shut off in the middle button and the batteries last for quite a while. I haven't replaced them more than twice in a year.

yes, you plug it in and it shuts off when you turn it off. I wondered this too.

Yes you can turn it off. The whole plate on the outside is an on/off button.

there's a way to turn it off but you have to un screw the ball and essentially remove the metal connector that completes the circuit for the battery so I would not really call it a switch but theres a way to turn it off

NO - The manual says to remove the batteries if it is not going to be used for a while.

I remove the batteries when I'm not using the timer. My device does not automatically shut off, I left the batteries in one time and it was still powered up a week later.

There is no off switch. You have to remove the battery to turn it off. The batteries, however, are inexpensive and last a long time (my first one lasted 6 weeks).
