Does this have an automatic shut off? I tired of having to replace batteries if I don't stay awake to turn my play off

It does have an automatic shut off. I got one of the things you can plug in and use with regular current and I don't have to use my batteries. The batteries last a long time when I do use them. I have been listening to a CD that has a series of 15 minute talks on it and when I shut it off, the next night the next one in the series comes up automatically. I have been very happy with my player.

Mine does not have auto shutoff. Any guarantee would need to come from Amazon. That said, their great return policy should not prevent you from getting it.

It will automatically turn off after a few minutes of not being in use. I have had mine for a few years and use it often. I just put a new battery in it a few weeks ago. Such a handy little gadget. Wish it could add the putts separately, but what more can you expect when it also adds your score. :-)

Sorry for my slow response. I dont remember automatic shut off...in fact I remember worrying I might forget to unplug it and drain my battery. But the warmth was worth the risk!

I don't believe it has an automatic shut off. It has an off position on the dial. You have to turn dial to the shut off position.

You know Mary I haven't looked. It came with them and we use it a lot. Haven't had to change it. If its not played with In a few mins it turns itself off.

It has an automatic shut-off. I think it turns off automatically after an hour. Move the switch to off and turn it on again.

No, I didn't want auto shut-off, but it is available at Amazon. I saw it when I got mine.

No it does not, I didn't know that any blanket would turn off automatically, however I just turn mine off when I get up.

No, it auto shuts off after about 20 minutes. It runs off batteries with no rechargeable plugs, so it conserves its battery life this way.

Not a auto shutoff it has a timer with a super loud buzzer when that goes off I'm pretty sure it just stays on until you turn it off,haven't tested it to see what happens if you don't turn it off.

Hi Cathlyn,No it does not have an auto off. That's about the only thing I was dissappointed with. I just make sure I turn it off every morning. I would still by another one in a minute if this one stopped working or when it wears out someday. I'm very happy with the way it works. Jeff

It turns off on its own. It just "goes to sleep".......Ive had mine a long long time, about 4 years I think, daily use and replaced the batteries only once. The only directions I found were inside the blister pack that it came packaged in. It showed what buttons are what and what type of battery it uses. No "off" switch.

No, it shuts off if the batteries die. It may buzz when the batteries are just about to die.

Hi, I don't know that it's designed to auto-turn-off, however, mine does that as well. Very annoying indeed!
