Will the light stay on as long as the main garage door opener light stays on?

The lights on your garage door opener, will stay on for the same amount of time that it always has. Any other lights you use the remote for or the Internet gateway via your phone, computer will stay on until you turn them off again. Basically any other lights you control via the MyQ technology are independent of the garage door opener.

the light switch works on other lighting. The garage door light is a separate issue. This light switch replaces a normal light switch for other lighting throughout the house.the light on the garage door can go out but whatever light this switch is hooked up to will stay on until turned off..You can control this light switch from your app the same as you can control the garage door from the app. Chamberlain just added a feature that alerts you when this light switch is activated

Sorry. I control the light from my iPhone not the garage remote. I have a gateway for both the garage door and light. Instructions are on line.

No, the light is operated by the switch independent of the opener (you can even use it without an opener). The light will stay on until you turn it off.

I leave mine set to the on position always. There's a motion sensor so the light stays on & will automatically go off after about 30 seconds after closing my door. Otherwise, depending on what you're using it for you could mount on wall or door & keep in off position & then manually turn on when you need it.

Yes and no. The yes part has to do with a built in "hold button" that overrides the night auto-close function but the "no" part is that when it starts getting dark the unit will override the "hold" button and close the garage door anyway. Note: If you have a need to override that also (if it's getting dark-ish) and you STILL want to keep the garage door open ANYWAY, simply switch off the power using the built-in on-off switch and that will totally disable the unit - you can keep the door open as long as you like. I've had mine for several years now and it works great. Hint: When installing the unit, put it in a place where it can easily "see" the outside light levels. If you bury it deep inside your garage, it will "think" its dark all the time or that sundown is coming much sooner than is appropriate. Hope that helps ya..

The light stays on all the time. We love our heater, my husband uses it all the time in our garage!

You would think it would just run off the power going to the opener. I assume its for the light that lights up the buttons when you open it up.

It depends how you wire the switch. On one pair of the switch terminals, you can see two fine wires leading in to the switch body. These wires supply the bulb. If you wire mains power to these two terminals, the light will remain on as long as the switch is connected. If you wire input power to the opposite pair of terminals, the switch will illuminate only when it's closed.

Yes, the other lights stay on if one is not lit or not in the right spot. Multiple sets can be attached to each other and stay lit.

No the light does not stay on. The only time the light is on the remote control is when you press the button temporarily.

Not really. If you turn off the main switch, then turn it back on, the light won't come back on without having to turn the remote switch back on also. Kinda a pain. Works great other than that.

The light should stay on. ..could be from a dead battery, make sure to take the battery out between using otherwise it will die really quickly.

My opener has a front light on and it still works after replacing the board. I believe what they're saying if that you will loose the light at the back if you use this replacement board, if it fits at all. Have a look at the back of the unit first, you should be able to read the logic board part number.

there is a timer that you can set for the length of time you want the light to stay on after it is activated. Mine is hooked to a regular light switch where you can turn it off if you so desire.

It could be your light switches too. I have two light switches that control this light. One at front door and the other at the garage entry door. So they have to be switched to the correct positions in order for the light to work. Not sure if you have two switches.

no. the reciever in the house has four lights, each light can detect several units. I have two garage doors; and I also got a unit for my walk-through door, I set each door on a different light, so if one of the three is blinking, I know which door is open. very easy to use and set up. My reciever in the house is appoximatly 40 ft from the doors. hope this helps. James

I'm not too sure what you mean by let it stay lit. With this setup you would probably be better off using a speed light and they ll will go off as you trigger them.
