I just received mine today. The remote switch does not work correctly, it only operates in momentary mode. It will not stay on.

It is working the way it is supposed to. If you want the light to stay on when you press the switch, use the button, not the pressure pad. The pressure pad is supposed to be momentary. With the button you will get more modes: bright, slightly dimmer and strobe, off. The pressure switch only gives you bright and off and only lights while the pressure pad has pressure on it.

Its working fine, it is only a pressure switch. The remote will not turn the light on to stay. You will have to spend a bit more money to get a light with that feature.

I never used the switch. Mine works okay. You must have received a defective unit. Return or exchange it ASAP

I turned the remote switch on, unplugged it from the power source, waited about 30 seconds, and the remote switch reverted to the off position when the power source was plugged back in. The remote had to be pushed again to go into the on position once power was restored. Good question. It made curious to try it.

I've never had a problem. The remote has a lot more functionality than the multifunction button on the machine. I love mine. Jim

Yes, I am having this problem currently. I press power (on the remote) to turn it off, it turns off briefly then on again after 5 seconds. I have to turn it off 5-6 times before it sticks.

sounds like you have had some bad luck. I've had mine for 3 yrs, have moved twice during that time and have never had any issues with the remote or the tv for that matter. Sorry. :-(

I've never had a problem with the remote. I did have to replace the batteries a few weeks after I received the item. But it did work fine.

I bought a refurbished unit and the remote worked fine. I think I would return it if it's not functional.

Hi Joseph, not sure if this will post under my account or not, but responding to the email: You know, I've tried...it seems like it will work at the same time for a minute...but then it stops. It's also kind of schitzo, and confusing to work. I push the right button and it doesn't go on, or I push both and they both come on, then I push the left and nothing happens, and it's unclear how to reset it. I compare it to how you push all the buttons on your remote when the TV is frozen. Seems kind of like that. Since my posting, I've stopped using it all together, because I thought that I'd just make the double light come on and flash, just for visibility. But then I discovered that it wouldn't last but for a moment. Oh well. I'm glad this was a gift, because I would have felt frustrated and returned it by now. :(

No, our remote still works, however, we do not use it much. If you are still under warranty I would suggest getting it replaced/repaired under warranty. If you bought it with a Visa you might have been given an extended warranty that Visa will cover.

Do you have the unit plugged in? The remote only works when it is plugged in. I do not have mine plugged it and it will automatically switch whenever I turn a different device on. I.e. If I'm on cable and want to play Xbox it will switch when I turn the Xbox on.

If it is used it is probably defective. Check that the batteries are good and inserted in the remote properly. Sometimes new batteries are bad, especially the ones that come with a unit. Some of these units are new but several years old.

The switch position never moves when you use it remotely. It always stays in a center position and springs back there after you move it manually. Hope that helps.

I haven't had such a problem, but I have experienced sluggish or incorrect response to the button control which was solved with the remote use. If your buttons work & you have after purchase warrantee, I would suggest using the warrantee to repair. If buttons work but not the remote then question the remote performance. Sorry I'm not more help. I have, however, purchased 4 units for myself and others and had issues twice that had to be resolved thru warantee use. Good Luck!

Welllll, we have this problem too. I called the company and got a new remote and it still didn't work all the time. We put a titanium battery in and it's now working all the time but I really don't know if that's why.

Not trying to be flipped, but did you make sure the batteries are in correctly and making contact? It has happened to me before that I misread or just assumed how the batteries went in. I bought 2 of these remotes and had no problems with them at all... Could also be you got a DOA remote... Sorry...

I had many problems with this myself. I tried to figure that out however was unsuccessful. I purchased other similar switches so I do not think I received a faulty switch. I would suggest YouTube.

Mine broke (the switch) shortly after I purchased it. I've previously commented that this is a poorly made product. Return it if you can.
