How do I completely dim the front clock panel? I know it goes from 1 - 4, but I'd like it to go to 0...

It doesn't go off all the way. I was worried about this when I bought it as I like to sleep in the dark, but it hasn't been an issue for me.

I don't think it will go completely off, but I've found the lowest setting unobtrusive.

It does only go 1 - 4 it will not go any lower then that I prefer zero at night or much lower, it can not be lowered anymore then 1. I have a wide ear headband that I lay around across the bottom part of the clock at night. It works fine like that for me.

I don't think you can turn it off or get it below 1. Your only options are probably to turn the front away from you, or use something to cover that part of the display. A small hand towel could probably be used to bunch up in front of it while you're sleeping, while easily stowed away when making your bed in the morning.

As others have said, I don't think there is a way to do it without something external to block it.

Yes, definitely. It is possible to dimm the clock light from 1-4, whereas mine is at 1. It's impossible to read at the day and by the night it's also very hard. If you choose to face it away I'm pretty sure the room will be 100% dark, even if it faces a wall where the light could reflect.

I wish there was a way to lock the clock on. I havent found a way , And the clock is WAY to small

There are two settings only - bright and dim - it can not be turned off. You would not be able to read the display if it were completely dark.

Congrats...you have inherited a great porch light. After dusk, flip the wall power switch to off, wait about 2-seconds, then flip the switch back on. The light is now in "manual" mode. Now, the light will remain full bright all night, but will return to AUTO mode after dawn. A better way would be to remove the glass dome and set the "DualBrite" switch to "Dusk To Dawn." In this mode, the light will stay lit all night, but in the dim setting until it senses motion. Then , it will automatically switch to full bright for 3-hrs, 6-hrs, or dusk to dawn. In this mode, you won't have to bother with the light. It will come on when it gets dark automatically, and stay on. Hope this helps. Congrats...you have inherited a great porch light.

Like previous answer, the point is to have the light on. However you can make it quote dim. I usually turn the brightness down a notch or two anyway.

try clicking on the dimmer switch in front....each click further dims until the lighted time goes off completely ...click again and it should go full on...

Turn to High level using remote/on-panel. The default setting when turned on is high, you have to press the Low to a low-hest level.

I believe there are three digital display settings, and the darkest one is off. But I haven't tried that because I want to see the time in the morning. I have it on dim and it's great.

As long as you start it in regular mode high it won't dim. I'm only dim if started in dimming mode (straight up and down)

Yup, press and hold the direction you want to dim (ie. press and hold the top button to slowly bring lights up, then press and hold the bottom button to dim.) when at the desired level, let go. Then go see a doctor about your, um, issue

I just checked the manual, and I don't think you can disable it completely. You can set it either 1, 2, or 3 hours, but I don't think you can get rid of it altogether. Hope that helps!

If you just walk past it, it is only a few seconds. If you stay in reach of the monitor it will stay on the bright setting until you move away. There is no way to change a setting on it.

make sure you turn down the dimmer level located on the front of the metal box - I didn't notice this at first but there is a dial that can be shifted from "-" to "+" Once I turned it down, I discovered my LED lights dimmed down to almost nothing, which was my goal.

On my clock the second button from the top turns the light off. The very top button turns up the light, the third from the top lowers the light

Yep, mine loses time, too. So, I contacted the company and they sent me a new circuit board and control panel. However, the installation seemed so involved that I haven't done it yet. I'm thinking about putting a nice magnet over it. Because, you know, aside from the clock issue, it seems to be a great range hood!

You cannot disable the display. You can only control the brightness which will still show the time. It can get really dim, but I'm not sure if that would be dark enough for you.
