How long does the sound go on? Does it shut off after a short period of time?

Basically there is an obnoxious-sounding beep (all the better to annoy your cat into avoiding the area) that goes off for about 1 second, right before the spray.

Sorry, just seen your question. The alarm is a shrill shrieking sound, less than 5seconds followed by a big puff of air. You actually can turn it on schrieking sound or puff of air, or both. I recommend using both to start out, then turn to just alarm sound. After awhile all they need yo see is the can. They won't go near it, and its absolutely harmless. Best deterrent product ever.

It is a short Beep every time your cat crosses the sensor path, It lasts about one second. you can shut the sound off and have just teh spray or you can have the sound and no spray. What the sound is for is to train the cat that when they hear the beep they're going to get a spray, this way you can shut off the spray feature and just have the sound so that you don't waste as much of the can. It's loud and annoying but it WORKS! They are fast learners and after getting sprayed a few times as well as that sound they get the hint. Also remember cats have very very sensitive hearing much more than a dog so that high pitched beep is yucky to them they don't like it and that alone for most cats is enough.

It beeps for about 1 second then the spray goes off. It all happens in less than 5 seconds.

Maybe like 3 seconds when it goes off. The sound will activate only when motion is detected.

It will maintain the sound you select but the model I purchased has an automatic turn off after one hour. So it will not stay on all night. Suggest you buy a different model without the automatic cut out.

I haven't actually timed it but my guess is that it shuts itself off in about two hours. For my use in walking the dog and having it on at the fitness center I don't find this to be a problem and actually a good feature in the event you forget to turn it off. There is no warning and I don't know if this feature can be turned off. Ooooops, I learned something from the response by Walter.

It's been a while but I'm pretty sure it has different times but will shut off after a max time. And the others are right. My granddaughter loved it. Hers had a volume switch that cut out when trying to turn it down. I sent another and let them know. I don't if others have had the same problem. Doesn't it say how long it will play?

It is about 35-40 minutes. There is a beeping noise that sounds when it is shutting off from the auto shut off feature.

It turns off and stays off until you turn it back on again. There's a 30 minute option as well.

It turns itself off relatively quickly once no activity happens for a few minutes. I have never timed it to see how many minutes....maybe 4 or 5?

its last till you turn it off or batteries go dead, i think it plays like 12 different tunes but there only like 30 secs long and they repeat over and over its works good , and yes it spins, only down fall is that its a bit loud there is no volume control, i put tape over speaker to muffle it.

I have two of these (one for each child) and love them. This sound machine will play until you turn it off. We play the white noise for our kids all night. It does have the option to automatically shut off, but I've never even tried it. I love this machine! Another great feature is that it can be plugged in or battery powered, this is great for when the power goes out! :-). Hope that helps!

It has a timer. It'll only run for that set amount of time then it'll turn off. That's normal.

It does shut itself off after some idle time. I'm not sure exactly how long but 9 minutes sounds about right.

12 hours at least ...they do shut down after 3 hours by default you just have to push the button again to activate the speaker

It's sound and motion. It will stay on but will turn off unless something passes it or makes a continuous sound

Kinda. It goes off quickly but restarts where you left it.If I pause my headset (Bluth) it's off in 5 min.

It seems to... All sound stops when it's closed. I never really close it before I shut it off.

about 4-6 hrs depends on the volume. BTW my USB connector is already messed up and it will not charge the unit. I reach out to customer service twice and never heard back. Don't buy it.

It shuts off after a minute of beeping and then counts forward. Sometimes this is nice because I'll be called away to do something after I've set it and can come back and see that it's gone off and then counted up to 2 minutes or whatnot, and know that it went off 3 minutes previously.
