Does the salt lamp need to stay turned on??

Yes Brenda, I leave mine on day and night. I only unplug it when I go on vacation.

No, but we leave ours on since we live in a very humid place & water condenses on it. We love it on all the time as a house night light. We have a big round one.

No it doesn't need to be kept on. Pay attention to how it makes you feel - such as do you feel out of balance or not well. The negative ions produced by the lamp are energy and they affect our energy - our balance. I found that having the lamp in a neutral place, not close to me and not keeping it on made me feel better. Listen to your body and pay attention to how you feel. I only turn mine on a few times a week.

The salt needs to be heated for it to produce its healthful effects. If you replace the stock bulb with one of higher voltage the salt will heat much quicker. Then you can turn it on only when you plan on being in the room with it and still experience its benefits. Plus after it gets hot you can turn it off and it will remain quite warm for a couple of hours.

Yes, unfortunately it only stays on as long as you are continuously pressing the switch. However, I am overall satisfied with the light

You have to turn the lamp on, but it won't be "on" until the timer completes the circuit (i.e. until it hits the on period that you want)

Yes & No ... I just moved mine to a switch and it will turn the light off , if already on, but you must touch it to turn it back on. I would not recommend it if you are looking for a lamp that will switch on and off without having to hunt for it in the dark and touch it. It always has to be within an arm's reach.

Yes. I always keep it on that way I don't have to keep turning on or off every time. Its have a manually turn on and off.

I use this for the lamp in my living room. If you set it so that it is not so sensitive and requires three claps the lamp should stay on even with ambient noise.

No, it doesn't stay on. The light will shut off after a few seconds and will only turn back on if you flip the switch off and on again.

If you just walk by and then leave the area where the lamp is, it stays on for about 1 minute. If you stay near it, it stays on as long as you are near it. I guess as long as it detects motion, it will stay on. When there is no more motion, it shuts off after one minute. I hope this helps answer your question. If you have more questions, feel free to ask. Thanks!

I don't think so. The light stays on for sure. It might have some energy saving mode, but it's not clear.

No. There is an on/off switch for the light. We usually leave ours on all the time, but it can easily be turned off.

The lamp was bought for my daughter, but she has not mentioned anything like that. She seems to keep it on most of the time also. I actually looked at it yesterday while there and I did not notice any water underneath it.

My Dome Lamp does go on & off if there is nearby footsteps, opening a drawer, thunder, lightening, etc. but I love the elegance of the lamp so much that it makes the small challenges unimportant. Hope this helps.

I purchased my lamp 8 months ago. Works fine most of the time but occasionally it goes off and on by itself even though lamp is off. Sounds like you and I must have lamps with wiring problems, but I have not contacted the shipper. Probably should but I really like the lamp so if I am gone for any period of time, I just unplug it.

The flow switch only tells your system when water is flowing. It can only fail in one of two ways. If it never switches on, your salt system will not work. If it stays on when no water is flowing, things could possibly get dangerous. Look at your "No Flow" light after the pump is running for a few minutes. It should turn off. Now, switch off the pump and the "No Flow" light should come on. If these two things happen, your flow switch is OK.

You may leave it on as long as the juice is on and the lamp does not burn out. Mine has been working perfectly for about 5 months with great light. You would need a timer attached to the power cord since the unit only has 3 fixed settings.

YES, it has an on/off switch on the body of the lamp. BTW, we have had more complimentary comments on this lamp than any other we have ever owned. I absolutely love it.

I spoke to a few friends of mine both very knowledgeable of the Himalayan salt rock foot lamps and they said that when they sit without the light being on, the salt is absorbing the air around it. I also believe its because when they ship the product they put a plastic wrapping around the salt dome which in turn creates moisture. The salt dome dried up within a few hours and now from time to time I get moisture and I just take a damp cloth and wipe around the wood pedestal. Please don't use any chemicals to wipe up the salt. I hope this helps!
