How do I turn it off?I only use it for testing purposes, but 5 hours after my first use, the LEDS are stil on..?

The unit is sealed and not designed to turn off. I use it for testing purposes also but I believe the manufacture expects you to attach it to whatever you are wanting to read and to leave it attached. Was not intended as a testing meter.

Hold down S1, it will start to count. When it gets to 05, release s1. Hold down s1 and s2 at the same time until you 000000, when you see all the zeros, release s1 and s2, It will reset everything and back to the "hours 0.0" page. Press s1 and s2 once again and it should turn off.

No off until the battery is dead 5 years from now. If it shut off it would need a wake up that was always active so it stays on.

There is obviously no switch to turn off the display, but if you want the display blank you can perform a total reset and the display will be cleared. Remember a total reset will also reset anything else that was stored previously.

buy a new unit. for the price of these new if you have a few of the LEDS go out you should just buy a new unit. they are not worth messing with. I have 3 lamps go out on mine after a few hours. they sent me a new one.

Im sorry... No suggestions... That sadly is exactly what happened with me. I just threw it away after about a week of it not turning on showing any motion with the lights. Maybe flip the black switch on the bottom and it may work.

The light is supposed to turn off when the battery is charged. If it only works when plugged in, that defeats the purpose. I'd contact the maker. Sounds like yours is defective. BTW, did some long workshops this summer. did recharge during the lunch breaks. The battery seems to last about 7.5 hours.

I believe it's a defective LED driver or at least one of the components in that power circuit. I had similar problem with one of the 18 units after 2 months of used. I would recommend contacting the seller to see if they can send you a replacement. I plan to do the same this week. It should not happen.

Dear Derek,We are so sorry for your inconvenience. Unfortunately, we do not have the option to turn off the LED during playback.Thanks

No the led lights don't have turn off switch and it won't turn off if you hook them up to a motherboard fan header, if you are hooking it upto a fan controller i don't think you could turn off the lights..i don't mind the LED so i just hooked mine up with the connector on the motherboard.

The main led light on the corner will glow blue while on, red while charging, and purple while on and charging. When just charging it will turn off completely when full or to blue when done charging while on. I believe it will last aprox 10 hours?

It only consumes energy when it's running. You can set it for 30 minutes, 3hrs or 6 hrs and it turns off automatically. LED? not sure about that. I don't remember the paperwork saying anything about that it being LED or the old original light. Sorry!

I'd send the bad one back. It should last longer. The LED part is probably good, the circuitry sometimes fails. Can't remember the warranty, thought it was a year.

Have not even looked yet. Will deal with it later, hopefully not for a long time since LED's are supposed to last a long time.

That sounds like a defect in the unit. Mine stays on about 5 seconds, then turns off. There isn't a button that I know of to be able to turn it off. I'd write to the seller and ask for a replacement. That isn't normal.

It doesn't look like there's anyway for it to be tuned off and I have by mistake left it charging for a few days in a row and still saw the light on. Hope this helped.

I've been testing mine since this question came in, 4 hours continuous use of the 3 LEDs since I turned it on (i.e. unplugged it from power) earlier today to do a test. It's still "on" and still quite bright after that time. I rely on these (I have 2 of them in the house) to come on automatically in an outage, and help me find my way to my stash of brighter flashlights and other emergency supplies. They do cast plenty of light for that and other basic purposes. If you REALLY don't want to be in the dark though, consider having additional sources of battery-powered light in your emergency kit. As we've all learned recently, it may be days rather than hours that you'll want some light.

Similar thing happened to me. Adjusted backlight and power off settings to longer minutes. Seemed to do the trick

wow- I've had different LEDs for as long as 4+ years now. None dead. I'd definitely contact whoever you bought it from. they should replace it if they;re decent...
