Mine seems to come on really early and stay on really late. Is it adjustable at all to make it less sensitive?

It all depends on where they are located on the house & how much light is getting to the photo eye. You can turn the little knob located on the front of the photo eye to let in less light or more light. Tightening it will let in less light, thus it will come on later in the evening.

I don't think there is a sensitivity adjustment but take a look at the position of the sensor relative to the sunlight. If it gets in a shadow earlier then that might trigger it on. With the really low power consumption an hour either way is not going to cost you much anyway.

It is not always on. I believe the timeout is set around 10 seconds before going back to sleep for default.

The only way that I know of to adjust the on and off sensitivity would be in placement of the sensor, by pointing in the direction of sunrise then they would possibly go off quicker, otherwise I have not seen any adjustments. Hope this helps.

It seems like all the settings up til about 7. I've learned to adapt to it. After a while you discover it's not a really big deal.

It stays on allllll night! That is why I have this one, so many of them turn off! This does have a 60 minute setting if you wanted but also stays on all night, there are two settings.

It will stay on for a little while, but it's so loud that I turn it off if it accidently goes on. It is sensitive though. Sometimes the slightest vibration will cause it to go off

I found I had to set the temperature a few degrees higher for it to come on. I believe this is because the sensor/antenna is close to the wall. I am trying to remember how the programming works. I just have mine set at 72 round the clock. I will check when back home. But I love this unit! Nice steady heat and electric bill did not go up.

Mine seems to go off completely every hour, and yesterday for a while it wouldn't go to the 5th setting.

Mine doesn't have that capability. I turn mine on Low about half hour before going to bed and have it at the 2 hour setting so it shuts off by itself....I love it!

Yes, my hubby will have his on high and mine is on low or off. Plus there is an auto off after 10 hours. I love it.

It is very sensitive. Finger or body sweat will set it off. you have to push button and pull the plug for it to go off. Hope this helps.

It goes off at the time you set. Or close to that that. I didn't notice premature turn off, of that's the questions.

yes and according to the setting you enter at the begining and what mode you set, you can alter how long it stays on (40 min or less) and how long it stays off before it automaticly will turn on agian for your set time agian.

technically yes. I forgot it on once and it was fine, but I don't do that often. On Saturdays I have mine on all day and it's fine but I usually set it to turn back on in the morning.

No, that is not normal, I have mine for two years. Are you sure it off and not just on the low mode, it is very quite.I believe there is a timer feature, make sure it is not set to go off automatically. Return it if it ahs a problem.

Yes makes it more sensitive. I had mine so sensitive that just a train going by set it off or someone starting their car next to mine set it of so go the other way. ..
