Are these motion activated? Do they shut off if the dog is at rest?

According to the instructions, yes. Only one of the collars worked and the shock was a bit much. I've been shocked on bare wires that weren't that bad. I will be ordering citronella collars. More humane and trainer recommended.

yes they shut off when not moving. This product is amazing for the price...have not had to use the shock part, still just vibrate.

Motion activated and yes turn off of dog is asleep, good battery life to! Few days between charges

Yes. There is no on or off button. They are rechargeable and they go to sleep when sitting still. Shake them before you put it on your dog as some users have complained that the dog getting up off the ground is not enough to wake the device up from sleep mode.

No. U control it with the buttons. The shock is delivered as long as you push the button. The vibration goes on 3 times in a row then shuts off

yes they are motion activated and do shut off while the dog is sleeping. This collar has been a great thing for us. Our dog is deaf so she cannot hear whistles or voices. This collar has totally trained our dog in about 2 months of use

We take them off at night since our dog is on carpet in our bedroom otherwise he is on hardwood floors all day. Also we imagine it is like taking your shoes off at the end of the day. Our golden retriever is 14 years old. We use them outside on walks because they protect his hind feet that he tends to drag and wear down his nails.

If its charged, the light stays on for a moment after the collar senses movement. That way if the dog is asleep or inactive the collar conserves battery life. No on off button on the collar.

Yes it is, but I don't turn them. No complaints yet. Also, my dogs cover themselves, so why bother to turn them.

Yes. If your light switch is on, they respond to motion both day and night. I had my electrician tweak them to stay on longer because they were set to turn off after 5 minutes of no motion.

The motion sensors are designed to ignore animals weighing less than 40 pounds. I have an English Springer Spaniel who weighs about 43 pounds and since my sensors are mounted near the ceilings, she does not set them off, however, she does not get up on any furniture. If you need any more info, I suggest you call SimpliSafe. They are very responsive to all inquiries.

If you keep moving around in front of the light, it stays on. However, I don't think that's going to be an issue. We have some other lights (not Mr. Beams but similar) which are also wireless, LED, motion-activated, and they're located just off our back porch. We also have two terriers and a doggie door back there. The dogs run in and out at night and set off those lights all the time, and they stay on for a while because the dogs are running around the yard and passing by them frequently. Those lights only have AA batteries in them, yet have been burning well since April without a battery change. The Mr. Beams lights use D batteries, so it's my guess they'll last even longer yet. And the Mr. Beams lights are brighter and were also cheaper than the first lights we bought. I'm very pleased with the purchase.

Hi, they do make noises when they are about to sleep!! You can either pull the tail softly for 10 seconds or so and/or you can put the Furby facing a wall in a quiet place since they are so sensorial they will shut down in silence. That's what I learned to do with mine, hope it helps!

No. They both shut off at the same time, but you could go in after they are sleeping and turn back on the sound without a timer on. Hope that helps!

They do not auto-off. The manual says they do, but it's a lie. I own two of them.

Hi. Unfortunately they cannot be programmed I have one in my backyard for my dog. It will usually stay on for 30-35 seconds. The sensor is pretty good with movement I also like the brightness of it Takes 4 D batteries. Durcells work well

As far as I know (and I have the one for cats, not dogs) there is no automatic shut-off.

There is no off button. The light does not stay on (it goes into sleep mode.) It turns on when your dog is moving about. It turns off when there is no movement and back on when your dog moves around. I know it is time to recharge it when I see my dog moving about and the red light isn't on. When you plug it in to recharge it the red light will flash and once it is fully charged (while plugged in) the light will remain a solid red till you unplug it. Hope this helps.

I don't turn them off. Since they're solar powered its okay to let them run. And then at night they light up the balcony and are beautiful. Theyre sturdy too! Hope this helps

They are purely motion activated. There is no switch to make them stay on (unless I have totally missed it). We bought them entirely so they would only light up briefly as we walked through the laundry room, so I haven't looked into options that would stay on.EDIT: I wrote that late at night, and realize that it was a little misleading. There isn't a way to make the lights come on when motion activated, and then stay on even if no one is moving. You can either use the auto (motion on / no motion they go off) or you can just the on / off switch like a regular light switch / lamp would have. They are purely motion activated.

It is a motion sensor. So the dog will set it off unless you put it up higher.
