When it's dark and you have lights off you can see the blue light inside. We just use the unit on low settings so have no problems with the unit shutting off. We have two units and love them.

There is no "Indicator light." It kind of looks like there's one on the "Germguardian" label on the Lower Right of the Front of the cleaner, but it's merely a shiny decoration. The only light to see ( a wee little) is........ If you push IN the little button on the front that says "UV" during running it, you can barely make out a little blue shining way inside the Grill. You may need to have a somewhat darkened room, and move your head around to see the pale blue light of the UV bulb inside. It's mostly shielded but a little light does sneak out. This IS giving off UV so don't be staring in there too long! That bulb only comes on while it's in low/medium/high mode, not when "Off" (even if the UV button is IN. it goes out in OFF mode) The UV is a germ/mold spore killer. The bulb only uses about TWO watts so it's not an electric concern. If you are turning clockwise, it goes.... OFF, Low ,Med, High. ( UNlike some window fans that go OFF, to high, then med, then low. I don't know why big window fans start at Off, and go to High first. ( Perhaps a big power boost to start the heavy fan moving.) To shut it off, you go COUNTER clockwise from high to med to low to OFF. If you are getting "Off" as you turn switch all the way COUNTER-clockwise, that's correct. ( A Black dot lines up with the UV button for correct OFF position. ) The Symbols that line up with the "UV" button are.... BLACK dot ( Off) One line ( l) =low. Two lines (ll) = medium. Three lines (lll) = High. The manufacturer says this runs at approx 56 Watts ( Small regular light bulb equivilant). But On medium setting it's less, and on low it probably uses maybe around 20 watts. My electricity is about 9 cents per KWH generation, plus 6 cents delivery to equal 15 cents per KWH. For me, it would run about $6.13 a month running 24/7 at high setting. I only run high a few hours a day and low the rest of the time. That should work out to around 3 to 4 bucks a month. If I'm out of the house for the day. I shut it off.

The dial is low/med/high but if you turn it past low the power light goes off. It doesn't say 'off' so I might just unplug it to ensure it's off.

Just to check, you plugged it in and clicked the switch? The light comes on but the ball doesn't rotate? Seems like a defect... mine starts right away.

Just bought mine today and turned it on 4 - experiencing a similar problem: Every several minutes the fan will decrease for a second and then go back to normal. It's almost like a power issue, but I don't notice lights dimming or anything else other than the fan noise for that second...

Dial behind sight has a dial on it... 0 is off. Battery could be dead like mine.

Mine doesn't go on buy that doesn't bother me. Until you asked this question, I never thought about it. I suppose that would be nice (my old one did have the light feature). Thanks for bringing this up. I'm still happy with it; my old one lasted for decades.

Check out a YouTube video to see correct light sequencing, but it sounds like it's probably broken. I had 2 faulty units before I contacted Eliminator directly and they sent me one that worked properly.

You are correct. I have had mine and it did the same thing. Pushing the reset and timer button and the light went out. I cant find my manual. Thank You!

There is a dial that starts at off and turns clockwise from low to high settings. A light goes on when it is turned on. No on/off button.

I believe you have a defective light. I love mine. It only has on and off features.

Hello There, Yes you might be missing the little plastic pieses, that fit in the little you see on the timer. there are two in it. one red to turn on and the other is black to turn off.or the transformer is dead.replace it. check one of the lights to see if the bulb worksBrent

Actually, mine has NEVER come on!. I don't know if I've done something wrong, or if it is defective. I should have, and would recommend, spending a couple dollara more and getting a good light, instead of taking a chance on this one.

Do you have the dials set for different times (with the yellow at less time than the green)? For us, we have the green dial turned to 30 and the yellow dial at 25. When we hit start, the yellow light and buzzer goes off in 25 minutes and the red light and final buzzer goes off 5 minutes later (at the 30 minute mark). If you set your timer this way and it doesn't work, then yes, it's defective.

ours is at least a few yrs old. there is a 'power on' light but it only indicates if the unit is 'on' or 'off' there is no different light for warm, med, hi, that just has a dial knob, Capish??

I had the same problem, I changed the battery (It's a CR2032 'button' battery.... available online for about 40 cents each) Once I put a fresh battery in it was fine. That was just a week ago, so I'll see how it goes. If it acts up again I will move the pins to channel 2 or 3 (less crowded area). Keep me posted, Don

It seems to me that your OxyLED lamp has a problem. I would send it back to be fixed or replaced. I checked mine again and it always starts and stops if I touch it right over the LED in a fast manner. If It were as erratic as yours is I would be dissatisfied for sure. I ordered on of the other mfgr's lamps that you mentioned. I'll see how it compares. As you said it is $20 less expensive which is a good feature too.Vic NettleI am in Tampa Florida, where are you, Yoon?

Mine didn't light up for a bit- until I accidentally clunked someone with it. Oops- looks like your is defective.
