Left in sunlight for 4 hours. Went straight into dark closet and closed the door. NO GLOW! Why not?

Sorry,but,I have never tried to ascertain if it actually glows in the dark or not...Or may be like the so called solar watch`s,at least those in the 1990`s...may be it got fried by the sun...may be the company`s web site might help.

via motion and it has to be dark. If you move but it's bright, then it wouldn't turn on.

My guess is to try it and see if you get results...previous suggestion is to keep it in the box away from direct light

The light inside this is very dim, so no insect came inside. That is what my experience.

It does not glow in the dark. :( Basically it doesn't do anything reviewers said it did.

The door is dark but I just press the lightbulb symbol on top to see in without opening the door

My dome light glows slightly even with the ignition off and doors shut. I understand that you can get rid of the glow with a small resistor in line with the LED bulb. I didn't bother with that and had no issues with my battery draining. The amount of electricity consumed is very very small and would probably light the LED for months or longer.

No it doesn't glow during the day....and you can barely see it during the night.

YES!! I held it in the sun for 20 seconds and walked into a dark closet. BINGO. The numbers and the hand DO glow. If you are trying not to wake a patient, just hold this in the light before you enter the patient's room. I didn't test how long it will glow but in the right circumstances, this could be very helpful.

Hello, I only used the light in complete darkness and stains did show, I have not tried it in dim lighting, I believe it would not work best under dim lighting. I can try later on today and see what shows.

Kind of - It really did the first day we used it, however, it now really requires you to put a light to it. If I go out at night in the backyard after it was exposed to sunlight all day, I don't notice any glow.

If it's a tritium sight you should be able to see it in the dark. That' why their called"night sights". They may be old. The radioactive element lasts about 10 years and .may be dead. I would send them back

no light but it doesn't really need one - the door is clear and as the other user said, the glow from the coils is helpful.

Starting at dark, we noticed a low glow until we went to bed so how long after that I don't know. I know at least two hours then after that, don't know! :)You won't be covering much with one package of this. So far we have gotten two & will be adding to it as we can.

Mine glow all night. The length of time they glow depends on how long you have them in the light. If I leave my bedroom light on for a couple hours, they usually are still glowing by morning. They're not going strong like they were when I went to bed but they are glow in the dark stars that need light to build up their glowing power.

If you're lucky like me, that happened after just 2-3 days of use and you can return it. My colleague has the one without the light and it has been fine for her!

I have glow in the dark pebbles. Black lights never seemed to do much to them. I think the Light has a hard time penetrating through the water. But that's just a guess. Go buy yourself a black light poster. Then if the pebbles don't work out you've got yourself something sweet
