Can it be used in daylight with power off?

Yes it can, but you will have to power up the scope and reticule cross hair, it will not be pristine clear like a conventional scope, but I have sighted in and shot in full daylight with the cover over the lens. The trick I have found is when to pull off the cover, I normally wait until you would not be able to read a book, I then open the lens cap. One has to remember this scope has no over exposure protection, so the lens cap MUST be on when in daylight or you will damage the intensifier tube. The Armasight 2+ Gen scope does have over exposure protection and what I think is a great idea, flip up open sights, if you can afford it Yes it can, but you will have to power up the scope and reticule cross hair, it will not be pristine clear like a conventional scope, but I have sighted in and shot in full daylight with the cover over the lens.

Yes. The scope works equally as well in sunlight through a pinhole in the cover. We love this scope for night. hunting or just wildlife viewing.

I am not sure if it can be turned off, however, I have mine installed with a wall switch to have the option to turn it on and off when I so need to or leave it on if going away for a period of time then it will be using the dawn to dusk feature (sensor). Hope this helps!

Yes- it has a light sensor that disables it from turning on the light during the day- except in test mode.

No it only works in the daylight. Sometimes when a big cloud goes over it will turn off.

It's considered "dusk-to-dawn" due to that's when it would operate when set outside. It would work indoors at any time. I'm even tempted to buy more for the closets I keep forgetting to turn switches off :-)

Yes. The "load" outputs on this controller can be programmed to come on at different times of the day for different lenghts of time. As for not putting out power when there is not enough sun, it does that automatically by monitoring the incoming voltage from both the battery and the solar panel. If it is too low the "load" outputs will disconnect automatically and only reconnect automatically when there is sufficient voltage coming in again.

Yes, but not recommended. There is a switch on the back side that has three positions: AUTO, OFF, and ON. In the ON position the light will remain on until the battery is drained.

No I don't believe u can.. It actually has a timer that cuts the light off a while because this is battery operated

It does not have dawn to dusk (on/off) feature. We plugged it into a switch that did that. Otherwise it was very bright and unaffected by rain.

It is possible to leave it on 24/7. The only disadvantage would be a higher power bill as it would continuously draw power. I usually turn it off at night though.

You, probably, should never leave it on direct sunlight, especially in parking mode. Just disconnect and hide it - it will be much safer.

Yes. There's a push botton to turn the lights on/off. I think it works well during the day or night.

Yes. It can turn lights on and off at dusk and dawn. It uses an odd setup that turns any device that is set at unit code +1 on and off according to daylight - so if you do not want this feature, you will need to avoid setting any device at the trigger code +1. It can also be set to only sense motion after dark and not respond during daylight. It's a major pain to setup, but does what it says at an incredible price.

It's solar powered only so does not need to be turned off. I guess you could turn it off by putting the cover on.

It can be done but not that practical. My light is connected to a wall switch that I can turn on or off. The key is you have a built in timer that is activated with motion to turn light on when dusk approaches. The timer is turned off if you turn switch off then on again. I know the instruction tell you how long you need to wait if you want to back to motion use but this will put light on until you decide to turn it off again. They also make similar lights that are not motion activated. This may be your best approach.

Your lighting unit will default to the automatic on at dusk off in the morning setting, if the power is shut off.

I would think so, as long as you used a low voltage timer. The battery is within the solar panel, so you could put a timer between the light and the panel. and just leave the light switch on, at the light. good luck !
