Will it come on at night without turning on a switch?

No, it doesn't turn on automatically. There is a power button that you need to press on for it to turn on. There are 1 big light bulb, and 5 mini light bulbs. The power button controls the amount of bulbs that will get turned on based on the number of times you press on the button. Low, medium, high, off.

It will come on automatically when it gets dark if left on. It's not very big I didn't have measurements when I bought it. It's great for camping but too small to put outside your house as a wall light.

No. It is not like a solar garden light. The item used to be listed as a garden light but it is not. Three light levels via 3 way button.

Yes. There is a button on the switch plate, at the receiver, that you press to turn the light on or off. This unit has worked flawlessly since I installed it, about a year ago. Light and receiver are located in a outdoor shed about 120 feet from house . It is used almost nightly in winter to turn the lights on from the house.

Yes. You turn it on, and it runs until you turn it off. I use it every night all night. I love it.

There's a "dusk to dawn" mode that will leave it on all night. "Test" mode will turn it on all the time regardless of ambient light levels.

Yes, there is a button to turn it on and a separate one for the light. You can leave it off if you choose too.

If you put it on a switch then you are controlling the normal operation. So, if you want it off while at night then flip the switch. However, if you switch it on during the daylight you will have no light on.

Yes. It is wired and you can turn it on and off with the switch. You can also set it up to stay on all night if you want or have it come on when it detects motion.

No. This light represents a good value for the money. I wouldn't want it to turn on by itself.

No. You can purchase a separate sensor that will turn it on and off. I did this with a 10 watt light and it lights one end of my house quite well.

Yes. We installed a timer that is simply a single switch. We don't use the nightlight feature.

You do need to hard wire it in but you can run it to an on and off switch inside the house. That way if you want to keep it from lighting after dark you could switch it off.

No it won't, you have to open the door and close it before the light will go on. You have to change the presure in side the house. In my home you can turn it on by closing the bath room door, or bed room door,the fridge, or evan lighting will turn it on. But just touching the door nob will not do it, you have to open and close the door.

it will come on when any motion is noticed by the eye. to use it as a light may not work even on a on off switch.

No, the light is operated by the switch independent of the opener (you can even use it without an opener). The light will stay on until you turn it off.

Yes, that's correct. I think the amount of time that it stays off is programmable. This is quite a nice switch although I haven't figured out how to "train" it to only come on when it's dark. I haven't really taken the time to work with it. The support folks are very helpful and friendly.

Since the timer activates with darkness I would say no. You could turn the switch to "on" and plug it into the lamp timer. Of course it won't show as brightly as it would from a dark room.
