If you leave your headlights on with it and have it not automatically turn off. It's a LPS for how long it can stay on.

You can always just turn your healights on and open the driver side door.... Thats a way to keep it on without turning on the car.

yep, the trick is to be able to turn it on using the stock switch and not having to put in a separate toggle

What's the point? So you want to have your fog lights on(without the low beams) while driving or just when you're parked? For driving would be kind of cool, but when the car is not on as the OP described - I don't get it, except maybe for photoshoots.
