I have a school project that deals with water. Will the strobe light part stay on automatically to make water appear to stand still

It will flash once and freeze the action .. it is not a strobe that continuously flashes

I don't understand your question. Is it a stobe light that flashes at say a 20HZ rate NO. It will flash Once, recharge and flash again when you are ready for the next photo. It will freeze water in the air for a Photo, Not a video, if you have your camera set up correctly. Carl Blum

A strobe flashes only a prescribed length of time, you can vary the intensity, but not the time. I have photographed water droplets and the dropping of objects into an aquarium. The strobe flash will function properly only at shutter speeds under 1/300, so you have to position your setup accordingly. Either do it in sunlight, or have indoor ambient lighting. I constructed a photo table with a glass top, and installed one of my strobes inside the table, both of my other strobes are on stanchions and I vary their positions according to my needs.

If you turn it on the beam comes on. If you turn it off and back on the strobe comes on

I don't think it will work. It is made for strobe firing not constant running.

I think it will if you can get it close enough. I use it for ducks invading my pool and crapping everywhere around it. I ALSO HAVE A FAKE ALLIGATOR in the pool so between the two>>>no ducks> The strobe is pretty bright in the night.

Hi! This light did not stay submerged in the little fountain I used it in. It needs more weight.NancyL

Let me first say that if Amazon sends you a light that works will be a small miricile. The sent me 2 used worthless lights. Let's say they work just for kicks and grins. If you put it out in the weather water will get in and not good things happen with water and electricity. The controls are on the bottom and it's designed to have the water flow with gravity.Good luck.Larry H.

It may but honestly don't waste your money it's cute for all of 5 min but you can't turn it off and it strobes nonstop. It is on and flashing from time you put battery in till you take it off and take the battery out which is a pain.

No! The strobe controller has a rapid strobing zig zag, a slow blinking zig zag, and a slow blink. To get the lights to stay solid you must wire them directly to power, without the included control box

I can't see what item you talking about but, if you are asking about the Strobe Motion Alarm Yes you can. I have mine outside in the balcony area since 2009. I just put a small piece of wood over it and it work perfect. Someone did stole my water fountain ones, after I put this they tried one more time but this thing it's so loud that they run and never came back. Victor

no..my dog ran in and out of the water a couple of times and it is toast...also..the light only stays on for a minute (normally) or two and then shuts off.

Yes, that is the case. Since my initial review, I find that is becomes too hot to handle after a few minutes and that light does not stay on reliably. I have to shake it to make it come back on sometimes. (It could be batteries as I have not tried changing them yet, but I haven't used the light much so I doubt it. )

No, it defaults to 1st brightest mode each time you turn it on. Strobe is 4th push.

I just got this at Christmas, but my understanding is that it works indefinitely. The light is actually powered by the water, so it should work for a long time.

No. Don't get it wet. It needs to be compliant with FL1 standards. You need to spend about $30 more to get a good waterproof light. But believe me it's worth it!

I have had the light for about a month and it has worked well. Still floats with no sign of damage from being in the water continuously. I have not tried putting it under water (it would not charge well if it was kept underwater) but it has certainly held up well in several big rains.

It should, you can set the sensitivity level and the length of time the light stays on.

Mine just spun the colors around the room. Not sure if it can be set for strobe effect.
