do have to turn this off when the sun go down or can you just let it go 24/7

You can attach it 24/7, but when there is no sun, the system is consuming from the grid (just few miliamps). I'm using a heavy duty timer to turn my 4 units off during night time...

You can leave plugged in 24/7. Only operates when unit receives D C power from panel and A. C. power from grid

you can leave it connected 24/7 but make sure that you are using solar panels less than 24VDC. The inverter is advertised for up to 30VDC, but don't count on it. 18 volts is about optimum.

You can leave the inverter on all the time. It does use a couple of watts when there is no solar input, but that is not a problem.

You can leave this unit plugged into the grid with no ill effects. This unit will begin to function once enough power is supplied to this unit in the morning.

There is an option to run the fan 24/7, but the ac part of it will shut down when it's reached the temperature desired on thermostat of the unit.

The on button is like automatic. It will turn off when the sun comes up, turn back on when the sun goes down

Yes.. there is an override switch on the Sunrise Simulator, so you'll just leave your lamp on all of the time. You can also override and totally shut it off if you don't want it to come on as well, without having to reprogram anything.

Yes you can turn this on and off manually if you do not want to use the option to turn on for a certain number of hours at dusk.

the unit does have an off/on button, so you can turn it off in the daytime....

You have to manually turn it off in the daytime. Hint: mount where you have easy access. Definitly worth the cost of quality batteries.

No, it's set to shut off during the day, other than that unscrewing the battery housing is the only way i believe.

Yes it can be switched off. Its bright in a mesmerizing way, looks very nice and soothing.

Yes it's comes on everytime there is motion. Day or night. There is an on / off button that enables you to deactivate it if you don't want to use it in the daytime.

You, probably, should never leave it on direct sunlight, especially in parking mode. Just disconnect and hide it - it will be much safer.

it has zip set which is when activated it will go on at sunset and you select turn off time either by hour which range from 2 hours up to 16 hours or you can set the exact time to turn off. I personally do not use zip I set the time on and time off myself. For myself this timer is great in fact I purchased two more. Hope this was helpful and I am sorry I did not reply sooner but this was the first chance I had.

You have to preset times you want something to turn on or off.Won't turn on automatically in 24 hours if someone shuts off.

Yes, the easiest way is to plug it into day/night sensor plug. That way it comes on automatically in the evening and goes off at dawn.

Yes. There is an option to set it to go off every 8, 12 or 24 hrs OR every 2nd, 3rd or 7th day. You can have it run from 1min up to 120min at a time.

No you can't just leave it on. There is no real on and off switch for that. BUT it does turn on once movement is detected. It is very sensitive. Right now, mine is set for movement up to about 50'. I don't know how long it will run with constant movement. Light is very bright. I was impressed for a solar LED light. It is excellent when used as a security light or when needing help to find your way in the dark. Only had it up for about a month so can't say much about how long it will last.

It has a auto turn off if it gets too hot. But I would not leave it on all night. It does not have a timer.
