Does this switch illuminate?

Yes it illuminates in same orange background as the rest of the dash. This is an OEM product, can't go wrong

Absolutely. But it will only illuminate with whichever wattage the lamp is set to. The lamp is always switched on and the controller varies the power between the wall and the lamp.

no the switch is only lighted when the unit is on. other than that the units work very well, but the leads are short for a large pick up.

yes - it has a little toggle switch, its a good product, pretty bright from the outside

No it does not, you have to push the button all the way in to turn on the light.

Yes. I don't know if they are all that way or if mine was just wired incorrectly. It definitely defeats the purpose of an illuminated switch.

I agree with previous answer. I will post a picture of the switch in the dark

No it doesn't, it's eitther on or off. The area it lights is also limited--there is little spread beyond the actual fixture.

Yes. Actually there is only a dimmer switch. It's a round knob to turn it to your desired brightness.

No it doesn't work as simple light switch. There is an on off function for the sensor though.I do not see a lack of this function as a problem at all. :) I still recommend this.

the red switch does illuminate when on---when you turn it off the light does off too

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.

yes, it just plugs in to where the current light is. Love the color changes!

The entire switch/slider doesn't light up (see Ty P.'s answer ) -- it is a moderate-intensity orange light below the switch itself. It's certainly sufficient to facilitate locating the switch in a dark hallway or room. The light on the switch turns off when the switch is turned on (makes sense...).

No the only switch on it is for brightness.If it stays on all the time it sounds like a problem with the electic eye.Unless it's in the dark all the time.

Yes, but there are two details. 1) the dimming will most likely be a stepping dim, not a smooth dim, and 2) when off the LED will still glow very dimly

Yes it does. The bigger white bar that you see on the switch is basically a big button. You can press it to manually turn the light on or off.
