What is he water depth for it to turn on, and the depth to turn off?

Not really sure but I believe it's only a couple of inches. The float is in the dark color area of the pump.

It it takes about an inch and a half of water and it goes to a float touch the bottom product works great

I'm sorry, I do not know. If you Google it, it should come up with all the specs.

Pump is a piece of crap, lasted 1 month if that, bought a big rule and am happy with it

It's all based on how much water pressure you have turned on. you can pretty easily get it to a 2' radius. not sure if it will go lower than that.

I have never let the level get more than 1/2 inch below the low water line, but it did not turn off. It did make a bit louder noise though, which is what brought it to my attention.

I don' t really understand the question but I will try to answer. It has a float switch that is mounted on a rod. The water gets higher the float slides up the rod and the pump turns on. You could also slide the float up manually to turn on.

Manual is not clear where it should sit...but if it does float above water until water low....mine does not turn off.

Not sure if this is what you want to know, but the pump pulls water in from the *bottom* of the unit, not the top. the pump turns on when the water level pushes the float up - after maybe about 4" of water fills the sump crock...

Very quiet. Only on for a few seconds. Yes it will push water 21'. There is a limit on how high you need to lift the water though.

I would give it at least 2-3 inches water depth. It works fine floating around. The suction cups comes with a string so it will move some. Keep in mind it only works in direct sun. It will not work on cloudy days or just day light.

The top can be tightened down to turn on. While turning it the opposite way ( left) will turn it off. Haven't used it underwater on purpose. But was not affected when submerged.

It can be switched on manually, but also has the automatic feature (turns on when submerged)

I bought a Ridgid TP-250 to replace a Pressure start pump which turned on only if the water was more than 2 inches deep. I am going to test my New Ridgid TP-250 this week to make sure it turns on as soon as I plug it in and I will check to see how low the water goes down to.I purchase a different pump last year but then I found out it only pumps down to 1/4 inch even thought the box said 1/8.

It should not matter where you turn the water on. The control turns the well pump on at 30psi and then shuts off at 50 or 60psidepending on the control setting. Depending how much water is running the pressure switch will cycle on and off which is normal.

it has a water sensor however it gets fully submerged it may go bad. there are metal contacts exposed

The float switch that turns the pump on/off will shut the pump off when the depth above the base of the pump reaches about 3". That would leave 3" of water still standing in your garage when the pump shuts off. This pump would really need to be installed into a recessed sump well to remove more of the water from your flooded garage.

Yes and yes! We have a pool with about 3' at the shallow end and 4.5' at the deep and and it works great! Also, when you let go it automatically turns off and floats.

you turn the light on and off by twisting the head clockwise or counterclockwise it is a dive light therefore it has 30 rings sealing water out so it does not turn easily. it is a dive light and it works great for a dive light but probably not as good for a utility light.

It's designed to sink. And when done, turn the power off while it's still in the water so it cools down. Then take it out. Great light, best I've ever used.
