Do they work when the light is off?

The wall light switch must be on to power the speakers, but the lights can be dimmed or turned off at either the base station or with the remote and the music will still play.

The light switch must be on but the light itself can be turned off via the included remote.

negative on that, they light up only when you turn on the lights at night. it would be nice if they did though

Hi Edna, Mine stay on a bit during the day, but only in my darker rooms. They are triggered by a light sensor, and the threshold does allow for some ambient light. If the light doesn't bother you, the electricity usage shouldn't be a concern (they're supposed to represent about $1/yr).

Not necessarily, but the lights are brighter in the dark (when they actually work)

No these are consider a cool light source and make it much more pleasant to work with. The lamp housing may get a little warm but quickly cools off when the lights are turned off.

Yes. Whether turned off via remote or power interruption, my Lights begin with the mode used when they shut down

Yes. When power is restored after brief interruption, lights go on in same mode as before interruption. I do not know if this is different if power is off for a long time.

Yes. They are touch activated and will "turn off" after a minute or so of no activity.

No. When the power is on, it works as a light activated night light. When the power goes out, if it's dark, then the light actually increases in brightness.

No, they don't turn off during the day. But you don't notice them when it's light out, and they use very little power.

Hi - No they do not. You would have to remove the battery to shut them off at night. Sorry

They are activated by a sensor, is the area dark where you have them plugged in? The lights will not turn on until they sense darkness.

No, they don't light up, and so the answer is, you don't know what you're pressing when it's dark. So I don't recommend using it in the dark. :-)

There is an on off switch. They are either on or off, It is not a day/night setting scenario.

If they are in a very dark area with no light source they will be on 24/7if near a window during the daytime they will be on but very dimif an actual room light is on, they will be off completelyIn all cases they are working as designed.

Yes, they are on all the time, but visible only in the dark. You will not be able to see their light during the daytime (indoors)

Ours only come on when motion is detected and it is dark. They do not come on when it is daylight. This must be the default because we did not change any "setting".
