Flickering, as some say, is realistic. My inner ear gets very dizzy with flickering and I need some emergency lights. Can I turn "off" a flicker mode

well, it does have a flickering effect. I didnot try to see if that mode can be turned off. Its not that prominent though, I hope it helps.

There is only an off/on button on the bottom of the candle plus a slot to put the battery. There is no way to shut off the flicker mode.

Sorry. Only can turn on/off and no switch for turning just the flicker mode off.

I have them in three ceiling fans. There is NO flicker. When you turn them on, they come on instantly. When you turn them off, they go out instantly...no flicker.

I didn't have that problem but there was a glitch in mine which made my screen flicker. I believe that it's a manufacturing issue. If you can't get it to work, is send it back and ask for another one

I just posted this video on how I fixed my flickering issue:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaLnsL4Bq_4

I have two setup, both on CF bulbs. I have 8 bulbs on one circuit, and one of the bulbs I noticed flickers for a few minutes after you turn them off. Something new I found out, when the power goes out, then comes back on, the lights on these units come on with the power.

I have not experienced a problem with the light flickering. The only suggestion I could offer is to check the wiring at the plug and wall outlet as well as the connection to the base of the light. If all else fails, I would suggest returning the light.Hope this helps

Thank you very much! I turn off one of my lamps, then the buzz stopped. Saved me! I am alll happy now.

No, I haven't noticed any flickering and have been using two of them for quite some time.

The light is always on when I start the machine. I've never had any problems with flickering.

No flickering problem here. Is it on a dimmer? If so, check the type. An older dimmer might mess with your leds.

From a distance (if the candles are within a few feet of each other) the remote turns the whole group on, off and changes color mode. If you get close however, you can easily activate one at a time. Yes, also flicker to steady.

I own five of them. They are in my kitchen. I have not noticed any flickering. Even when dimmed.

Most of these answers are blatantly wrong. There are three main "modes."1. Regular "on"2. dimmed "on"3. Strobe/Flashing.Turning it on/off quickly should get these effects.

No they seam to do that by design just a flicker every few seconds you can change the mode so they blink.

Why does anyone think people want more than 1 mode on their flashlight?! Seriously, I have NEVER needed my flashlight to flicker annoyingly, or needed a dim flashlight. The different modes are nothing but a pain!

I was being driven mad by my lights flickering. I used fluorescent bulbs. Apparently, that's a no-no, per the company website. http://www.intermatic.com/en/Products/Timers/InWallTimers/Electronic_Timers/EJ500.aspx It specifically says "Controls incandescent lighting." Lesson learned.

IF by flashing, you mean flickering, then this unit does not flicker. Typically, units that flickers are ones that are dimmable. This item does not dim. It does use a ballast and so it does have that initial step up during start (about 3/10 of a second), but by no means do I consider that flashing, or flickering. Just on the product itself, I have them in my garage (8") and in my guest bedrooms (6"). No problem so far. Thickness is slightly thinner than sheetrock. Be sure to clear back attic insulation for good ventilation. I've checked mine after about 6 hours usage and it was not even warm to the touch. Good product overall. Good luck on your project.
