I don't want anyone to be able to turn off the light manually, is that possible?

The light is designed with a manual switch and the instructions do not include any suggestions for disabling this manual switch. However, it can be modified so the manual switch is no longer available. The front panel is designed for easy removal into two pieces. The bottom piece is the portion that allows for operation of the manual switch. If this bottom portion is removed, the switch will still operate as designed except the manual switch will be disabled. Alternatively, the manual switch can be disabled by blocking the lower portion with a wedge so that it cannot move in when pressed. There is a third, permanent alternative. The lower portion of the panel that operates as the manual switch has a clear plastic finger on the inside of the panel that pokes into the main body of the switch. Cut this plastic finger off. Without this finger, the manual switch cannot operate.

There is a button that turns off the light (I just can't remember where because I returned this a few months ago).

You can turn it off using the FN key and the dim backlight option until it's off.

The only way to override the automatic light-sensing "off" switch is to put tape over the sensor. It would stay on all the time then.

Yes, you can turn it off manually, but it is not very convenient to do so. My sign is mounted high in a window so the remote works best for us.

No. The only way to do so is to use a toggle switch add on. If you don't want the light you can simply not install it as I did.

Yes, you can disconnect the light unit. There are instructions in the box that explain how to do this.

I can't turn the lights off on mine. But I'm pretty sure you can remove them safely if you can tinker with electronics.

If I understand your question correctly, yes you can simply turn off the unit by using the remote. It does not have a light sensor so there is no "on at sunrise/off at dusk" feature.

The answer is yes and no. You have option to turn off the light but it is still bright in the off mode. I wrap a hand towel around it to hide the lighting. The machine works awesome though so it's okay by me.

The light can be turned off. Thats my favorite way. I just bought another (ebay charges no sales tax).

It can not be turned off. The light is very dim, though. It only gets bright when the motion detector is set off.

Sorry, no you cannot. You can turn it off, up and down brightness control, but not permanently on.

No you cannot disable the light. The batteries are only for power backup. everything works with the power supply or the batteries.

There is no switch to turn the light off, it will stay on unless you unplug it. That being said, there seems to be a sensor that will increase/decrease the intensity depending on how much lighting is present in the room. Perhaps in a sunlight room it will turn off... haven't tested this.

Not certain i understand your question fully. its a programmable fixture so why would one buy it if they didnt want that feature? you want to turn the fixture off but you dont want to physically do it nor do you want it programmed to turn off?? you can just push the button used for programming to turn the light off. thats your choice. you either program it to turn off or yes you have to push the button to turn it off.....or unplug it i guess??

You probably already have answer, but no, it can't be turned off if it's charged and in the dark.
