Does this light have an off/on switch? Can this light be completely shut off so that it can be used only when the light is needed? Thanks.

It has a pull string. Even though it is poorly made I have had 2 and am about to order a third one. I am learning how to rebuild them as they go belly up. Unfortunately, I haven't come across anything that suits my situation better. Plenty bright to read by when unmounted. The springs that hold the batteries seem to get loose. You can open it up and stretch the springs for a tighter fit. The solar panel is good. Too bad we can't just get a replacement light. Or better yet...too bad the company doesn't turn out a quality product.

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.

The light can be turned on or off while operating. The power light is a bit bright though and stays on until it runs out of water. Hope this helps!

Yes, the switch has Auto, Off and On settings. The light is well-designed, reliable and strong. We have been using ours for at least a year in an area of frequent power outages.

Yes, there is an on/off switch. I have put this lamp post next to our park bench at the far end of the property an I love it! It came with a bottom center stake for base stability but no corner stakes for the holes I had to get my own.

There is a switch on the light but if you mount it high you can't turn it off. It's a push button switch. you mite use a long small pole to turn it off. It goes off at daylight by it self.

You can turn this light off. The switch also allows three separate light levels, though they are all very "soft."

No it has an on and of switch. It does not turn off by itself. Hope this helps.

The light can NOT be used in a "normal" on/off mode. It has no switch. If the battery is in it will always work as it was designed, i.e., it will come on when there is BOTH motion AND darkness. I use it in an outdoor shower and it provides plenty of light for night-time bathing. It stays on as long as you continue to move and the ambient light is low.

Yes, it has an on/off switch on the side. You can shut it off when ever you want.

There is no switch, just plug in when you need the illumination......otherwise, it's awesome off!

Yes, there is a button to turn it on and a separate one for the light. You can leave it off if you choose too.

Hi Rod, this light is on automatic all the time. You can turn it on and off with the remote at will, but when you turn it on, it will stay on for only as long as you set it for when you first instaled it (see instructions). It doesn't just stay on AND it won't just stay off. Unless I missed something in the instructions. No pause mode. There is a switch on the light itself to turn it completely OFF--but I would need a ladder to do that.

We installed it in a laundry room with no switch. The light turns on and off automatically. You can use a standard switch with it, but you would leave it "on" at all times, but this could lead to confusion, if someone accidentally turned it off.

It has an on/off switch, but it doesn't have any other functionality. Guessing that if you just leave the light on and control it from the electrical outlet with a timer of some sort then it could work. Hard to say. Great light though.

No, the light is operated by the switch independent of the opener (you can even use it without an opener). The light will stay on until you turn it off.

No, it doesn't stay on. The light will shut off after a few seconds and will only turn back on if you flip the switch off and on again.
