does this make a click sound when turned on and off? I need it for nursing in the night and don't want to wake baby with a click.

Yes, there is a little bit of a "click" sound when you manually turn it off and on, but nothing that should wake your baby up! I was able to edit my review to include a video where I turned it on and off a few times.

I have 2 other keyboards that are quieter, but never use them and neither are without a sound. This keyboard does produce a clicking sound that can be heard in a connecting room, if both rooms were otherwise quiet. I'd guess the sound could be objectionable to anyone sleeping nearby. However, as daytime users, I did not notice the sound might be an issue, until you asked.

It does make a little noise. But I use it while watching TV & don't have to turn the TV up. Others may or may not hear it. I don't think it would be bothersome if they did. It automatically runs for 15 minutes but you can turn it off at anytime.

If you don't press one of the timer buttons, it will stay on indefinitely, so yes it would stay on all night. Just beware, the sound quality is far inferior to a plug-in sound machine, and the thing WILL break on you. Mine has gradually lost functions and we've only used it occasionally (once or twice a week for 1-2 hours at a time, usually for napping baby while out and about). The volume control stopped working, then the power control broke so I have to take a battery out to turn it off (it is the same dial to control volume and on/off) and now only one of the four sounds plays, I can't get it to change. For occasional use I'm willing to put up with it. If you don't press one of the timer buttons, it will stay on indefinitely, so yes it would stay on all night.

Yes it makes a louder noise...for safety reasons. But if you hold the push button in and turned, then it doesn't really. I would only find this necessary to do though if I needed to be in stealth mode. My kids learned that the sound of the gate related to going up the stairs so they would come running. It was actually nice though since I had triplets and it was a great way to get their attention. I LOVE the gate, by the way.

yes, it will always start with the sound it was on when turned off. I love mine, by the way- helps me sleep like nothing else!

No, our did not make a clicking sound. However ours died already. It was only 8 months old. Honeywell would not stand behind it although we could prove purchase date. Couldn't find this model in a store so not sure if it was a bad model that they discontinued. Buy with caution. Maybe buy it from an actual store so you can return it if does die out on you. Let the store fight Honeywell.

Do all of yours make that clicking noise when it is on? It seems like it shouldn't make that sound?

I have used several of these, and you will find a "click off" sound after the lowest dim point on the switch. It is than turned off.

Yes, there is a very light clicking sound. Not a loud one that you might here from something like the Power Tail Switch, but a gentle one. If complete quiet is important, you might want to look into the solid-state version of this relay.

It does make an audible click. Maybe slightly softer than a regular mouse, but still noticeable. I'm a grad student and use it one of my classes. That class is pretty small (7 of us and the professor), so I am occasionally self conscious about the click.

Yes it does. It doesn't actually make a clicking sound but does stop at each setting.

Yes, it makes a fairly loud "click" sound when it switches on and off. I had to replace my 12 year old switch with a new one. Same brand. But this new one is much louder than the old one.

It does make a noise when it's turned on, which I would describe more as a loud click.

Thanks, but I'm not talking about the clicker. The newest model (came out about 3-6 mths ago) has no sound at all with the clicker off. The older version does have a soft clicking sound even with the clicker off. Just trying to find out which one these are before buying. Thanks.

I am having the same problem. After pushing the sensitivity button, I can hear out of the baby's room, then the unit mutes after a few seconds. Not quite sure if this is a battery saving feature...I always have mine plugged in next to my bed! It does go on when there is noise in the baby's room. I thought perhaps there was a reset button on the parent unit. Perhaps changing the battery will help. I guess it's time to refer to the owners manual. :-)

There is a very, very, very faint click when the magnet moves close enough to trigger the switch inside it, but you have to be right next to it and on a dead calm day to hear it. If you are talking a noise to alert somebody that it was triggered, then no.
