Do these lights turn off automatically after a certain amount of time?

I really do not know. I bought it for certain use. When I found them not suitable for my needs, I disowned them. This person is satisfied with it, I am told. Specifics, I have not asked.

No, it is not automatic. It is a tap on, tap off light but I love it anyway.

No, they don't. You have to turn it on and off. It uses AAA batteries that last a pretty long time - but if you accidently leave it on (Like I did!) the battery will be gone in about 10 hours. I hope this helps. I do love this light. It is very bright and adjustable- up and down.

I had a similar situation, a light sensor was supposed to turn them off during daylight hours, but they didn't turn totally off.

Yes the light is on a timer, I'm not sure how long but it seems like about 10-15 minutes. But it will turn off by itself.

They have a switch on the bottom that you can set to on, off, or auto. Set it to auto and it will stay on for 5 hours. I have some that I turned on at 5pm so they stay on till 10, some that I turned on at 6 that stay on till 11pm. Easy! We've had them since xmas and still LOVE them! :)

If you have set the timer, it will go off after the desired number of minutes. I do not have problems with the lamp going off when I did not set the timer.

No, they must be connected to a switch. The switch could be automatic in the sense of on at dark and off at light. But most of the time these work best to augment floor or stair steps light.

They do turn off when no controller is attached. and they stay on when it does.

I don't think so. I've owned mine for about 5 years now and the light stays on until I turn the unit off.

Hi. Nope. They stay on, but during the day, you can barley notice them.. And they use almost no electricty either, which is good

My lights don't stay on very long. I haven't really had a chance to look it over completely to see if there is some sort of timer on it.

No. They stay on all the time, but use very little energy. Very soft light, very pleasant.

You don't ever turn them off (there is only an ON button, no off button). They automatically turn off when there is no signal for a few minutes.

they will come on at any time. i like these - but i ended up getting the longer one that has the switch to turn them off for that particular reason. here's the one that i got that has the off switch. the one above does eat up a lot of batteries if you don't turn it off. alternatively you can turn the batteries around or put the small piece of paper in to turn them off during the day. but i just got this one so i can turn it off. was on my way out the door to work yesterday & didn't have time to look it up. link below. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AZR6SUY/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1#

The lights respond only when there is sufficient darkness and movement, such as walking up or down the stairs at nighttime. It is definitely not a mere motion detector. They do not respond unless it is sufficiently dark on the stairs. They shut off automatically approximately 45 seconds after passing the last light fixture. We are very pleased with the lights!

Hi Edna,Mine stay on a bit during the day, but only in my darker rooms. They are triggered by a light sensor, and the threshold does allow for some ambient light. If the light doesn't bother you, the electricity usage shouldn't be a concern (they're supposed to represent about $1/yr).

No. One button press makes them illuminate for a minute or so, before automatically switching off.

Another way to turn off lights is just to depress the button for a few seconds, the then it will automatically turn off by itself
