Is there a safety shut-off if this gets left on too long?

There is a thermostat, so you can set it to a certain temp, and it will shut off automatically. Other then that no, it will run constantly if the temp is set to high. It uses very little energy though.

There is a thermostat dial that you can set to shut it off, [with no numbers -just a line from thin to fat]. You have to experiment with it to find the shut off point for each room or situation.

When it gets to a certain temperature that is quite hot it will shut itself off and then you must reset it.

No. There is only a thermostat that turns off the heat when a certain room temperature is reached...

I've left ours on since it arrived a few weeks ago. It has a timer you can activate but by default it will stay on indefinitely.

you could set up a timer on the power supply that is three volts to shut of then back on in 17 min timer this is a sealed computer box. So messing with that not advisable.

Mine has never shut off due to overheating. The only safety shut off I know about on the unit is a spring loaded switch on the bottom. Make sure you can press it down and it springs back then try placing it on a hard surface, like the floor, to make sure the switch is pressing down and try it. If this doesn't work then the problem is inside the unit which means proceed at your own risk.

Better turn it off as soon as the power outage happens. Don't take risks with space heaters, no matter how safe they are.

Yes, you just may gave to turn water flow off and on again if it safety times out

I've never left it on all night so I'm not sure, but I haven't noticed an automatic shutoff mechanism or anything. Remember that it takes batteries so leaving it on all night could eat through those pretty quickly.

Yah it will shut off of left unattended for long periods. Not sure of the exact cutoff time period

Not sure about automatic shut off but if it tips over it will cut off on its on as a safety procedure

I would call manufacturer to be sure. This does not have an automatic shutoff either.

Yes; it turns the heat off after 20 - 30 minutes. If you need more heat, just turn it on again. I feel that the shutoff is a good safety feature.

If you mean, as a safety feature, it shuts off if it is tilted or turned on its side - then NO.All normal functions are timed so those shut off automatically. There is a main ON/OFF button as well that over-rides all timed functions.

No not that I know of. I never leave mine on for long. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I've had this problem. The safety shutoff engages when the cord gets too hot. I changed the setting from large room to medium room so that the heater draws less watts and this fixed the problem, cord no longer gets hot and heater no longer shuts off. For some reason, most heater manufacturers do not use a high enough gage cord for their products to be run at full power for more than a few minutes at a time.

You have to continue to hold the switch down or it shuts off. I see it as a safety.

Yes, it will turn itself off after 60 minutes. It will give you a warning that it is going to turn off so you have the option to keep it on.

I believe that mine goes 4-5 minutes before turning off but it does that for safety purposes.
