on which mode should I put it so it will automatically turn on when the power goes out?

I can't find mine right now, lol, but I think it's just the "charge" mode. Never experienced it though.

I think it is the ON position. On mine, if it is ON and I plug it in, the light goes off. And if I pull it out of the socket, simulating a power outage, the light comes on. If it is OFF/Charge position, you can pull it out of the socket and nothing happens. If it is in the night light/charge position, the night light is always on. The only think I am not sure of is if it getting charged when it is in the ON position and plugged in.Sorry, I noticed too late that geeker answered the same way.

If you set it in the "on" position, when the power goes off the light will come on. I'm not sure if it will charge in this position. It will charge in the other two positions. Good luck!

To have it automatically turn on in a power failure have it plugged in and have the button in either the "on" or "night light" position. If it's in the night light position it will remain on 24/7. If it's in the on position, it will be off when plugged in but on when unplugged or when plugged in if there's a power failure.

Yes, turns on when you power up. I have not figured out how to manually turn it on yet.

Push button on/off....be careful not to leave on, will draw full power whether something is plugged in or not

i don't know for sure, but my experience with digital push button power switches means that you would have to manually turn it on after it looses power. I'll check tonight when I get home and can let you know tomorrow.

Manuel mode. Turn switch on light comes on and stays on. Auto mode. Turn switch on off on. ( has to be done Quick off and on)It takes a few seconds to activate to auto mode. It's stays that way till you turn the switch off. Then you start over. If you have it on manual for the night and turn it off at the end of the night. The following day would be the same as instructed above. I'm very happy and works great. Hope It was helpful. P. s. It has I light sensitivity adjustment that's easy to adjust.

There is no battery associated with this device. Generally you need to buy a deep cycle battery separately to run this power inverter from. No it will not turn on automatically when the power fails. You have to manually turn on the device. If you are constantly charging your battery you could leave it on at all times, but having the battery as a go between is incredibly important to make sure the inverter receives constant current.

Sorry I don't really know. I have a habit of always just unplugging it as soon as I'm done so its automatically on next time I plug it in. Lol

Yes, the switch should be on so it automatically works when it gets dark. It looks really cute in our garden.

Lightly push the power button half way while the light is on and then let up on the button, but don't push it all the way down to turn the light off. Each time you lightly press the button the mode will change.

If you need it to be on all the time, then do it, but it's best if you don't use it, turn it off and you may save some power... this just personal opinion. I always turned my off and if I need it, I'll turn it on.

Just hold to the power button on the bottom. The "blue" light will extinguish denoting that the power is off.

I use auto. Might as well let it figure when it needs power. No sense leaving it on 24/7.

It goes into power saving mode automatically when not in use. Alternatively you can put it upside down to avoid accidentally activating the optical sensor.

Why would you want to? Switch off (open circuit an remove power) is the same as a power outage. Light would come on until battery dies.

I believe the default can be set to what it was last turned off too. However if you leave it on and it has an ignition source as in, if you turn the key to battery then it engages the monitor or relay it will turn on without having to push power. Hope this helps.

It need be connected to the power, then it can controller on/off.(in the timer switch, there's a capacitor)

Hate to add a second answer but realized i did not really answer the question. On 16 you have to push the mode selection button to turn on power to the load
