How do you turn the power off? It is on all the time which seems to defeat the purpose.

My experience with the unit has been a bit frustrating. The first unit failed and the unit that they replaced it with periodically continues to flash yellow even after the charging cycle completes. If you are talking about the green power button remaining on, that should not draw much power at all. I hope that helps.

Charging stops when the vehicle is fully charged. After that, power draw should be negligible. Of course, you can manually disconnect at the breakers if you ever need to.

MaryT are you sure?, On my unit the Power light is on all the time wether I am charging my car or not.

Do you mean the power light on the charger? That just indicates that power is available to it. The charging light (middle light) will be on if the unit is sending power to the car. Also all electric cars will automatically stop drawing power once their battery has a full charge. Hope this info helps.Matt

In 6 Months and 6500 miles on my Nissan LEAF my electric bill has gone up $25 a month. So 2.3 cents per mile including the Leviton being on all the time for 6 months. There are people who have installed a disconnect switch with a sub-panel next to the EVSE. But I figure that with the EVB40 being on that it will cost me an extra $10.00 per year at 15 watts. Not really sure if it's worth the extra electrical equipment and your time to turn it off every single day for $10 savings per year.

Not sure understand question but there is a circuits breaker. Like an outlet should be on all the time. Not using power unless plugged into your car. Hope helps.

It has a switch internal to the device that senses when your car is plugged in. this is the charger Ford installs for twice the price.

There's no switch on the unit. But I believe what you are seeing is the "on" light. The unit itself isnot under load until you plug it into the car. So it's drawing about as much as a nightlight, as far as i can tell.

This is not normal. Are you sure that you are moving down to the selection that says "POWER OFF". If you don't it takes about 5-10 minutes to turn itself off.

I don't think it really has to be powered constantly, it is just a recommendation so it doesn't have to reboot every time it gets turned back on. So you can turn it off if you want, there is nothing that says you have to leave it on.

You must first press the press the "AVR" button below the "Power On" Button, Then press the "Power Off" button... (I hope this helps :) , I had a bit of trouble at first but my old 20MkII was the same way _ because it is designed to control power for many devices separately you must tell it which one to power down )

My display is always on, as well. I don't see anything in the user's manual indicating that there is a way to shut the display off.

Turn it off by pressing the power/band button for about 2 seconds. I don't think this is mentioned in the instructions.

i think there is a turn (off /on) tab on the back side. or simply unplug it. i always leave mine on but its up to you.

There is a switch at the top under the plastic cap that controls the power. Good luck.

I had the same problem. It wouldn't turn all the way off after a power spike to my house. I finally gave up and put it away.

Hi, it starts automatically and stays on , and when its on u can click on soft power button to standbt ( might need to unplug and plug power if u do that) and reboot . So I keep it on all the time unless it gets hot, which is not often, then I unplug to rest it.

On the Top there is an on/off switch. I havent really been able to use this the way I would of liked.You really need to see where your power source is. And make sure it has no play.

It has to be on both legs of the power. Try locating the display as close to the unit as possible. Turning the power off to the unit on the line will reset it, I believe.

Hold down on the ON/OFF button a few seconds, do the same thing to turn it off.... and unplug it, I hope this helps you.

It doesn't have an "off" it's always on. If it's not working try hitting the reset button on the underside near the battery compartment or changing the batteries.

You can power it off from the menus. But there is no button on the device to power it down, you just have to unplug it.
