Is there a way for the controller to save its last state, I.e. color or program mode after it loses power?

Its not programable, it comes with preset settings and yes it will stay on the same setting it was on before it is turned off or died

Yes, when you unplug this light and plug it back in later, the last color and state (fading, strobe, etc) is retained.

Maybe. It retains the programming for a period of time after you remove power. I never found out how long though.

Sorry, I can't Answer. I don't believe we have lost power since this has been installed. I know that it works consistently and comes on at the same time unless we reset the time.

No it doesn't work that way. The lamp does not remember its on/off state. Once disconnected from power, you have to switch it on after connection.

No. To save on battery power, it only lights when buttons are pressed. I prefer to have even THAT option disabled. I have flashlights to supply power during outages. If you'd like to get one, go here; http://lightsngear.com

If it is short power cycled like the power is off for 10 seconds then back on it will change modes. If the power is turned off by a timer at the end of the night then kicks on the next day it will remember the mode it was in.

Not to my knowledge. I have not experienced a power outage since installing the control, but I don't recall anything in the very abbreviated documentation.

Make sure both controller and power button are pressed and let run fo two minutes.

The unit has retained its settings for me when power is removed. I don't know what the official manufacturer statement would be.

yes, if you turn on/off with the lever or remote the bulb remembers the last color setting..

Only when a controller is docked. Orange while charging and blue when complete.

no. however if it stays plugged in, the controller should draw power from the console.

When power is restored the switch goes back to the off state. i Just tested it 5 times.

Yes, it remembers the last setting that you had it on when you turn it off.

My simple answer is "Yes". When power returns (having gone), the monitor powers up on its own.

The controller has several dynamic modes, one of them is a kind of strobe effect. You can also control the speed of the dynamic modes to be slower or faster. One of the other dynamic modes is a smooth transition fade through about 8 colors. THat fade can be slowed way down to be a very suttle change between colors. You can also select about a color form about 20 preset colors and change the brightness to be very dim or very bright. The working voltage for the contoller is DC 5v up to 24V. I used a 12 volt power supply with mine because that is what the LED light strip required.
