What does self lighting mean? I want a trigger or button light to avoid using a "scratch" lighter.

Exactly. The "Knuckle" half way up the nozzle tube is a piezo igniter. One push of the button and the torch ignites. I love this torch.

It means you don't need a striker. You turn the knob up to let the gas flow through and push the trigger (on the handle) and you got flame.

You can program the light or request someone to write the code. I had a good program that had a dazzle, push 3 sec and let go the button or if you held the button pass 4 sec placed it into a quick on off. The button does take a little pressure but I made a holder for my weapon and works well.

Small white button on the side of the light itself. First push.. flashlight; second push...lamp;third push blinking strobe: push and hold...offNot great if you need a light in a hurry. Very easy to push more than 1 time getting lamp or strobe when you want just a flashlight. Then it's a twist of the lens to broaden or tighten the focus. A gadget exploiting UV and Lithium Ion tech improvements that could be performed by 3 different "give away" flashlights. I put mine in a car door pocket just in case and because it was a gift. Clumsy not convenient

Push button start. Very easy. You can push the button against any hard surface to light it.

I actually shimmed my button with little bits of plastic under the rubber cap, to make the button easier to activate. It's buried and quite stiff. I think you're far more likely to pop off the pocket clip and lose the clip. (happened twice on mine, lucky enough to find it again both times -- And I squeezed closed the part that holds onto the barrel to grip tighter, but i'm not sure of the effectiveness there.) Just make sure the light is INSIDE the pocket, and you should be okay to not lose the flashlight itself. :o)

No pressure switch. Tail switch flashlight, very sensitive though. Momentary on with light press, full press will click and stay on, 2 quick presses a nd will go to strobe mode til deactivated with another press. Easy to operate for me, but I've never like the pressure pad switches.

I don't know what you mean. This one I bought has a button on the back yo turn it on and it lights up.

It must be getting a signal before your hand leaves the lamp area and jumps on to the first step. If it is a wall lamp, does it have a cord cover that is touching the body of the lamp? That could cause a false trigger.

No. This supplies power on sensing motion, as if being just plugged in, but the natural state of a touch lamp after being plugged in is "off". You need a light that will come on when plugged in, without any secondary trigger requirements. The hard-wired wall motion switches are the same way.

No, the lights all have separate on/off switches but do not work with a trigger. I used the set up for portraits for a church photo directory and used this lighting with no flash and it worked very well by positioning the light boxes.

Its not an on off toggle like a normal flashlight. Its a programmable button that is a momentary toggle.

You can set the light to come on when you hit any button. Stays back lite for about 2 seconds. No setting the time it stays back lite

make sure you pull out the tab that separates the batteries from the metal. The ''pull tab'' is on most toys and appliances that DO include batteries. I bought this a long time ago and I use it for hunting. BTW- it is more of a ''Widespread'' than ''Beam'' or ''spotlight'' as most people say....but I use it to leave the shooting house, not shine on the deer because it would not put enough light on it. If you are looking for a really good hand held light that zooms in get one with a convex lens.

Mine lit up when took it out of box, I didn't notice , sometimes I have to push the button on again. I don't know.

It's not that hard to light. The whole bottom round knob is the button. If nothing else, pressing it downward on a flat surface does the same as pressing it with a thumb. When lighting it, there is a black slider that must be pushed up to the "on" position first. Then the flame type slider on the side must be set to "jet". Then pushing in on the bottom will light it. This is all described in the directions of use.

There is a nice positive sliding switch. Will stay on or off on its own. A small wide rubber band is on the light to fasten to your finger. I love mine.

If I remember correctly, there is a manual override capability. I believe, if you have a standard on/off switch, you cycle the switch from "on" to "off" back to "on" quickly it will turn on the light. If you cycle it again it will go back to automatic.
