Is there an on/off switch so we can have total darkness if we want?

Yes, you can turn off the switch so that the deck light will not activate when it gets dark.

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.

Yes, you can turn them on an off from an indoor switch if the switch operates that sources. The power switch should be in the on position all the time or else the dusk sensor will not be able to turn the light on. If you want the switch to be in the off position the light will not turn on. The fixture does not need sun to work as it is not solar, but it does need some low level light or the light sensor will continuously turn it on. Really is a great light.

The light stays on all night. It's just very dim. Then when it senses motion it brightens. I don't know if its possible to turn it completely off.

As far as I know, you can't, but the light is very dim and will likely not bother you in a dark room. The light died after a few months in mine and I've kept it that way.

Yes you can. There is a switch on the back that gives you different settings for the light, on of which is "off".

Yes, there is a small light orange circle shaped led at the top right of the switch when it's in the off position. This is so it is easy to find in the dark.

No. There is a light sensor that controls the on/off of the light. That being said the sensor could be covered with something like black tape to trick the light to come on. A.

Yes, the switch has a very dim locator light to assist in finding it in the dark. The "option" refers to a tiny switch on the dimmer that allows you to disable the light off if desired. The installation instructions explain it.

There is a button. On, off and night. It can not be individually set on timers for day and night light.

You can turn the light off. However, if you want to use this at night and are fond of sleeping in complete darkness, skip this one. The On/Off indicator light is SO bright. I contacted Smiley Daisy and unfortunately you cannot do anything about it.

Yes the light can be off. It has a selection of nice colors to choose from but also can be running without light. =}

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.

I don't think so. If you want to control when these lights either turn on or off, you should think about getting the non, dusk-to-dawn version of this light.

Yes. There's a push botton to turn the lights on/off. I think it works well during the day or night.

No, but you can set it on ultra dim. I need an extremely dark room to be able to sleep and it doesn't bother me at all.

Yes you can turn it off and on with a switch. But it will only light when it dark outside
