I use the bedside lamp to read at night. Can you use the control panel to turn the lamp on at a time not set?

Yes.. there is an override switch on the Sunrise Simulator, so you'll just leave your lamp on all of the time. You can also override and totally shut it off if you don't want it to come on as well, without having to reprogram anything.

Yes it has three positions on the switch - OFF (left) if you want to sleep late, TIMER (center), and ON (right) if you want to use it as a regular lamp.

I use the Lighten Up with my bedside lamp as well. There's a toggle switch on the right side of the device; one side is on, the other is off, and when the switch is in the middle, it's set to the timer. Just switch the light to on to read, then switch back to the middle before going to sleep to ensure the light comes on in the morning.

Yes. There is a switch on the side of the control box that allows you to switch it on mannually. It works just fine.

Yes, but with a catch. The switch to turn the lamp on and off takes the devise out of the timer mode, so if you fall asleep with your bedside lamp on, the timer wouldn't go off.

Yes there is a setting that will turn it on manually. You press the button til it goes to "O". Great for troubleshooting lights during the day.

There are two settings only - bright and dim - it can not be turned off. You would not be able to read the display if it were completely dark.

Yes, I use it as a reading light in bed before I go to sleep. You do have to keep the light close (about 30 centimeters) to the page.

Unfortunately, no. I tried plugging it into a timer for that very ability. That didn't work because once the power is off the start button needs to be pressed to turn it on.

Yes. You can set it for when you wake. It turns itself off after 2 hours as well.

I attached my lamp to the headboard and read at night. The lamp takes ten minutes to get to the point you can not touch it. I like mine.

I think there is a switch. But once you turn it on they come on like clockwork every night when it gets dark.

just purchased this and have not set any daily modes for the week, but activated the vacation security mode to see how the random on and off light feature worked. I've also set the day and correct time in this unit,, so far for the last 2 nites, the unit has turned on the lamp at around 6PM but I've manually turned off the unit late at nite before I go to bed because it stays on. during the day, it stays off. I can only surmise that I have to set on and off times for each day & that the random timer works off of that,, otherwise it does not appear to do the random on and off.

Yes. You can turn the nightlight off. It has 4 settings; low/ low with light/ high/ high with light

Yes. The manual lamp switch is still an option - but why? :) I love being able to use my iPad to turn the lamp on and off.

yes. there is a button on upper right corner to adjust brightness and one setting is off.

No. The lamp is only for when yours completely burns out or dims badly. The pixels are on the screen itself. Sorry.

Yes you can, and it is very easy, you just tap the white area below the LCD display to turn the light on or off, and it works regardless of what mode you are in. You can also change to manual mode if you want to temporarily disable the schedule and only use it manually. It also has random on/off (for security). Again, regardless of which mode you choose you can always turn it off and/or on manually by tapping the switch.

No. You can only set a turn on\off time an thatks it. I do not think any frame like this has such a feature.

I don't see how it would be possible for the lamp to "remember" the brightness level one last had it at. It operates on four clicks: click 1 turns the lamp on (LOW); click 2 medium; click 3 high; click 4 OFF. The next click is click 1, which turns the lamp on (LOW). The design allows for no other operation.

No... You turn the lamp on or off by pressing down on the white plastic lamp shade, and you would not be able to do this if you remove the plastic shade and replace it with something else. You cannot turn the lamp on or off by pressing a button.
