If you set the temp and unplug it, does it hold the same temp when plugged back in?

No, I don't think so. It starts from scratch. It takes only seconds to re-set though.

I'm sorry, but I don't know. I returned this because it was loud and wobbly. Was afraid it would fall over and be a fire hazard.

No, it doesn't. It resets if you unplug it. Regardless of whether it stays plugged in or not, every time you turn it back on you have to manually set the "thermostat" function and temperature, although if it hasn't been unplugged it will default to the last temperature you set it on. There is a light on the front panel so that you know whether it's on automatic/thermostat or just "on".

When you plug it back in, it is off until you push the button to turn it on. Then it is on manual until you manually adjust the temperature.

It seems to pickup where it left off when I plug it back in after being off for a day or so. I don't know if this will be true over a long period of time if it is unplugged from power or if you remove the usb stick or SD card while it is off.

Once you set the temp., it remains at that set temperature until you change it.Even after you turn it off and then on again.

As far as I know as long as it is plugged in the setting stays where you set it. I would question whether this heater should be left unattended for such a long period of time.

No. Once it's plugged it will turn on perfectly. Once unplugged, it will turn off and rest.

Hello -- I'm not exactly sure what you mean by does it work after unplugging then plugging back in. If the unit is powered off (and I think it would have the same behavior if attached to a programmable timer) then you need to actually turn it on manually for it to run again after that. Its thermostat works so well that maybe you wouldn't need to attach it to the timed power. Just set the temp you want, it will run as much as it needs to in order to get to that temp, then it will "inactivate" but it starts up again if the temp in the room begins to drop. So if it were me I'd avoid the timed outlet/power strip.Kathy Hello -- I'm not exactly sure what you mean by does it work after unplugging then plugging back in.

In both the outlet, and in terms of tablet, the answer is yes... Doesnt get warm at all... I leave mine plugged in most of the time while playing.. I have a battery app, and leaving it plugged in does not affect battery life

We have had no issues unplugging unit an plugging back in. Have had only between one an two years really don't know how long it will last.

No it doesn't, at least the model that was on sale a while back (and I don't think it's changed). It takes a long, long time to reach the required temperature and then gradually climbs beyond it. I guess once it's reached the required temp you could turn it off for a while to save power and then plug it back in when you saw the temperature dropping, but I would advise against that. The sensors aren't always a good reflection of the temperature reached inside different objects/in the middle of stacks of things, and you want it as hot as possible to make sure every tiny pocket of air is as hot as it needs to be. Though of course that does make it a total nightmare to run in summer. No it doesn't, at least the model that was on sale a while back (and I don't think it's changed).

No you have to unplug it to shut it off. However, it is designed to provide low heat. This is the second one I have owned. I wore the other one out. Usually we do not get temperatures below low to mid 20's and not many of them.

I have noticed that occasionally. I'm not sure about the cause; it may be because the desired temperature has reached the actual temperature for an extended period of time. You can easily reset it by either turning it back on or pulling the plug out of the wall socket and putting it back in.

No, when unplugged it'll shut off the hot pot. After water boiled, it will change to warm mode to maintain the same temp until it's used up.

Yes. I leave mine set at 69 and the power level self-fluctuates to stay at that temp.
1302822
Yes, if you set it to a temp, it will reach that temp,shut off and restart to achieve that temp.
1886903
Yes. I have been using mine like I use my laptop - just plug it back in no matter how much has been discharged.

Yes if you want the temperature to be consistent, you will have to leave it plugged in all the time. It takes too long to warm up on an as needed basis. We leave ours plugged in all the time and we love it!!

Hi,Mine first did that when it was first installed. The temp was set to high. I unplugged the unit and not turn it back on until the next morning and it has been great since then.
