Yes you can turn light on and off. You can have steady light or have strobe action going. It is a really bright light and will scare any intruder and temporarily blind them giving you a great advantage. Hope this info is helpful.

What is happening that you feel the shutter is being left open too long? Are you shooting in manual mode? I know the only issue I had with this flash was cannot shoot with a long shutter because it blacks out the photo. Is that what you're having?

Dear Lcrash, no you do not have to keep the trigger pressed it has a trigger lock so you can keep the light on and have both your hands free to do what you need. BEST SPOTLIGHT on the market!!!!! Hope this helps : )

hello and neither did mine. It did arrive in a sealed package. When you hold down the button it turns on and glows... when you let go, it turns off. I guess thats all there is to it lol. I did find that depending how hard you held down the rather firm button it glowed brighter and therefore worked better, but because of this it was tough to hold down when wanting to get at certain angles of the things you may be working on. Hope this helps and best of luck!

This is a "dumb" trigger. It has no TTL capability. So you would need to use the flashes in manual mode.

There is a button onthe back. Tap it and no more sound. Left side in middle. Also in manual. Great flash - enjoy!

I actually shimmed my button with little bits of plastic under the rubber cap, to make the button easier to activate. It's buried and quite stiff. I think you're far more likely to pop off the pocket clip and lose the clip. (happened twice on mine, lucky enough to find it again both times -- And I squeezed closed the part that holds onto the barrel to grip tighter, but i'm not sure of the effectiveness there.) Just make sure the light is INSIDE the pocket, and you should be okay to not lose the flashlight itself. :o)

there is a little on/off slide switch on bottom----the only time u want it on--is when u want to use the flashlight or// may be gonna use the stun gun--very shortly. leave switch off/when charging. remember--"cap" must be off for the electrodes to be exposed !! u always leave it off--when not in use !!

The switch for laser is very small on bottom. The switch for lite is on the side you push it in and it will slide back and forth from side to side. Make sure you unscrew the front part and put in the battery. Also the first time you push in its full on if you quickly shut off then back on it will flash. Hope this helps very easy to use. Great fit on my full size M&P; 9

I had to press pretty hard to get it to flash, press again for a solid red, and when we were done walking, press it again to turn it off. The battery doesn't have a very long life, however. If you've already bought it, fine, but don't leave it on needlessly. Mine died about two months after purchase, and I was pretty conservative.

I think they have redesigned this light- mine arrived today and I charged it up per instructions before first use and just tried it out. The light is trigger operated now instead of the dial control that is mentioned in earlier reviews. Pull the trigger once and it comes on at the brightest setting (really bright), pull it again and it goes to a lower brightness setting which would be good for up close work. The light stays on until you pull the trigger again, so yes, it will stay on until you turn it off.

read the product description dude!! -do you only see stuff thru you fon and cant scroll, or what?? //rant off. YES, it has strobe, I can verify by having one in my hand...but I also could have read about the product. FWIW, the strobe isnt real fast, but still disorenting if thats what you are after

If switched immediately, it will go to the next function. If this is delayed, it will default to the bright light position. Push switch, but not fully, and it will go to next function. It is a tactical device as the bright light or strobe will temporaly blind attackers allowing them to be shot multiple times. Carry plenty of ammo.

I have a t4i. So far I can't get my pop up flash to engage with the lightscoop. Hoping there is some type of setting I can change. But most likely not gonna happen. Bummer...

Hi Bennet, Sorry for late reply. If the battery is not charged fully, its light flash. But once it is charged fully, its light stop flashing. If you have any further questions, please let us know it.

First, you have to press the flash release button to open the flash(refer to the manual for location{ looking at the back of the camera, it's to the left of the flash cover, on the top of the camera} ). You also have to set the flash mode; always, automatic,etc.Several times I've been frustrated only to find out that the flash wasn't open and ready.Good luck.

Small white button on the side of the light itself. First push.. flashlight; second push...lamp;third push blinking strobe: push and hold...offNot great if you need a light in a hurry. Very easy to push more than 1 time getting lamp or strobe when you want just a flashlight. Then it's a twist of the lens to broaden or tighten the focus. A gadget exploiting UV and Lithium Ion tech improvements that could be performed by 3 different "give away" flashlights. I put mine in a car door pocket just in case and because it was a gift. Clumsy not convenient
