can you "stop" it? how does it turn off if I don't use it until it is empty? is there an on and off switch?

The liquid "fuel" burns itself out in 2-4 hours, tops, so we have never had to worry about 'how to turn it off.' I guess if you had to do so, simply cutting off the oxygen supply with a non-flammable object--a ceramic plate or metallic sheet???--would do the trick.

There is no on and off switch but you close it by shutting the sliding the metal flue which is above the well. It also allows you to regulate the size of the flame above

there's two sliding covers that simply slide over the flame and smother it. there is a hook to slide the covers so you don't burn your fingers

I had not used this feature, but just tried it and it appears that it can be stopped and started again where I left off. Simple to do just using the start/stop button. Thanks

there is in the handle, or you can just turn it off. Buy this thing you won't regret it. i'm on my 2nd one.

You can't turn it off. The only thing maybe you could do is take the battery in and out, but that'd be too much hassle. The battery seems to last fine, though. I've had mine for half a year, and the original battery is still working.

The only way to disable it is to have it on the off position.. hope that helps

There is no way to disable it without unplugging it because there is no button for it. I would'nt leave it plugged in 24/7 anyways because it could be hazardous. so I think thats your best option. Or try reading the manual to see if it says anything just in case.

Until you turn it off. It doesn't have a built-in timer function to turn off automatically.

It is a switch that stays on until you switch it off. You do not have to hold it down continuously. That would be really annoying!

There is no on/off switch on the drive. I'm guessing here, but the only way to shut it down is to disconnect the power cord. I use it as my Carbonite backup drive, so it's always on.

There is an on-off switch on the side. It will also turn itself off automatically after a few minutes.

there is no off switch. to turn machine off you have to unplug it. I have been doing this all along, no big deal :)

There's a button. You have to turn it off and on I believe never left it on long enough to see if it turns off automatically. But pretty sure you have to do it yourself

Pretty sure there is a standby mode (warm) but I believe it's recommended to turn it off if you are not going to use it for an extended length of time.

I found nothing in the manual about turning it off. They list the following number for questions 1-800-955-0959 in the manual.

you turn it off with the switch on the side. If you're coming in from outside it will go off but you can turn it off after you enter. We only use them when we're all leaving or when we go to bed.

There is a tiny on/off switch. If you forget to switch it off, when you're finished with it, the battery will be dead by morning :(
