This is a "flash" in the truest sense of the word, you cannot make it stay on. When the flash is charging that is happing is that a circuit in the camera is taking voltage from the battery and turning it into a much higher voltage that is then discharged when the flash goes off. You may noticed that it takes longer to charge the flash as the better is getting weaker, that is because the battery have less current to provide the charging circuit.
I think you are thinking that is can be used as a light (maybe for video mode) but this is not available in the vast majority of digital cameras.
