Is this off when there is no motion or does it stay dim?

There is a dim light during dark hours when there is no motion, when there is motion it only comes on for about 30 seconds if the motion stops. It stays off completely in daylight.

It stays on whole time at 50% reduced brightness through out night time and when motion detected it brighten to full 100% brightness. It stays completely turned off during day time. It's all automatic. So far, it works pretty good past one & half month in use.

According to product details... "It will be in "dim light" mode until it senses motion; when sensing motion it will activate the "bright light". "Bright light" turns off 10 seconds after motion stops. Detects motion within 10 feet - 120 degree angle.

No, but you can reduce the sensitivity of the motion sensor AND decrease the amount of time it stays bright when triggered. So, the way I have it set, the light comes on at dusk at a low intensity and will stay on continuously until dawn. If you walk directly in front of it, closer than about 5 feet or so, it goes to full brightness, then if the motion is not triggered again, it goes back to the low brightness in about 1 minute or less. When set in this mode, at no time does it completely turn off, unless the batteries are really run down. When you first receive it, the batteries could be really low (mine was) and I thought at first it was defective, until I reread the instructions, and understood how it's programmed to function. The motion sensor has priority, meaning that when the battery gets really low, the light will discontinue the low intensity dusk to dawn mode, and save what power is left to turn on bright when motion triggered..... So be sure to let it charge at least one day in the sun before you turn it to any setting other than off. (Still charges battery when turned to off). Since I have had it it has always remained on until dawn, even with some really cloudy and raining days decreasing its ability to charge. Now if it's motion sensor gets triggered too often, I can see the battery maybe getting rundown..... It this happens you can use another trick I have used before....simply take black electrical tape and tape up a portion of the motion sensor. Covered by black tape it will NOT sense motion.

No. Under bright light or daylight, the lights will not come on when it senses motion.

Once the motion censor is tripped - the light stays on for about 30 seconds then goes off. If it detects motion again it will go on again quickly, but does not stay constantly on - it would be going off and then on again / every 30 seconds or so. The light is very bright - lights up the whole front walk way, I LOVE it - and the batteries last a long time. I will be getting another one soon.

It will turn on when sensing both low light and motion. It will not turn on under day light. It will not stay on if there is no motion detected.

Yes the light is always lit on a low setting but then becomes very bright when motion is detected

Mine lights or flashes when motion is detected. It does not stay on steady. This is a good replacement because unlike some others it works with any incandesant bulbs and it works great on a dimmer switch. With others, you cannot use a dimmer or energy efficient bulbs.

It's on all night at a low level, and lights up when motion is detected for a few minutes. It has been working for months now.

No, I don't recall writing that. If I did, I must have been suffering from the sun myself. The light does not come on during the day. It comes on about 30 minutes after sundown on a low setting. If motion is detected it comes on nice and bright for about 30 seconds and then goes back to the dim setting. It stays active the entire night.

No, only after dark, and then only for a brief time. Owners manual says lights stay on for 20 seconds after motion stops, that seems to be about right. There are no adjustments for dark levels, on time, or sensitivity like there are on AC powered motion lights.

The intensity of the soft/dim light before motion is sensed is like moonlight on a cloudy night, or like a nightlight in your bathroom. It is enough so you know it is there, but it won't help you see much. Luckily though, the fully activated mode is super bright.

This is a daylight off, dark on, light controlled device. It only reacts to light and dark, motion has no bearing on its operation. You might want to purchase a motion controlled light that is also sensitive to light and dark. It will turn on at night if there is motion in its range of detection. It will not come on in daylight even if there is motion in its range of detection.

When ambient light is low the unit lights dimly and stays lit dimly giving low illumination. Once activated by motion it becomes much brighter. This would of course conserve stored energy. I did not see anything in the manual that mentioned the ability to set the unit to provide light all night long without motion (keep in mind I'm operating off my memory as I no longer have the manual). I'll post again on the unit after its been in use for > 1 month to let you know what reliability is. It has operated for > 1 week without problems.

There's a setting that changes the brightness according to ambient light levels. I suggest leaving it off all the time

It's dim when not being activated, and then yes it's bright for a little night light.

The "ON" time is adjustable. I'm moving light into a barn because rain got inside the motion-sensor housing with water condensation on the translucent surface. After that, the light only occasionally responded to motion.

I don't know if it can be set in that way, but I doubt about it. Anyway, light was turn on after a motion was detected in 10s it automatically switch to dim mode. The light will stay on in dim mode until next motion detected.
