Did I get a dud? (doesn't turn on) - I connected it to a wall outlet and a floor lamp (nice &amp; simple) and on/off toggling on the module has no effect

sounds like you may have to send it back, but you can at least plug in another power supply, or test the units power supply on another 5 volt system, just to see what is broken. I have mine plugged into one of the USB ports on my TV, that way it powers off with the TV so I don't see a power light, it must be on the power supply it self. maybe moving it to another outlet might help to isolate the problem, just in case it was the outlet, saving you the trouble of sending it back. Good Luck!

Press the SRC button to turn it on. If it does not work, it might be bad wiring or problem on the product itself. There is not many reasons that might cause it to go bad

Sometimes when I first got it I had to flip the switch a few times to get it to turn on but no problems since then. It may not be super high quality but works great for me so far. I wouldn't worry. Return it if it doesn't work! Good luck

Did you try to plug light in the other outlet? And did you reset the unit? Hope this works

I plugged it into my wall outlet and it works fine. If it is not working plugged in, something is wrong. Mine works perfectly and I am very happy with it. Perhaps try taking it around the house to see if maybe the outlet is functioning properly.

Mine was a little slow to start accepting commands at the beginning, but I just worked with it awhile and it started working. All I can say is keep trying, and try unplugging and plugging the power cord for the main unit also. If that doesn't work the only option is to return it for another one. Does the lights come on in the viewing window when plugged in, you should get something.

Check the light bulb. It job just a on/off switch. Only thing I can think is lights bulb bad, light switch on the fixture is off, no power to the outlet, or you got a dud. Maybe your GFI button on the outlet is tripped. Sounds like a dud. Try a different outlet.

Sounds vaguely familiar. If you press the button, does the light turn on at all? Have you tried removing the batteries, waiting a few moments, then reinstalling the batteries? If it's the problem I think it is, I think it's the light's circuitry going into a protection mode. When you charge the light, do you plug the charger cable into power source, then plug the mini-USB plug into the light? Or do you connect the light to the cable first, then connect the cable to a power source? If the former, then I suggest switching to the latter to avoid the problem. I suspect it's an issue of the powered cable touching part of the light it shouldn't if you're not inserting it "cleanly" into the charging port, tripping a protection mode.

Dont know, sorry. Have you tried unplugging it and restarting. Sounds like wiring problem

if it was installed correctly, the backlit showed be on. There is a wire that is connected to the power, that should be properly inserted into the small connector on the circuit board.

Did you turn it on using the nob in the from first. Try that first. If not, check your outlet and try plug to another outlet. And if thats not the case you have to send it back for a new one. I hope thats kind of helpful.

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.

Are you kidding?IF IT IS CORDED,PLUG IT IN!!!If it doesn't come on,Try the reset button!!!If it still doesn't come on then there is no power at the outlet!
