Can you bypass an auto shut off, allowing this to remain on indefinitely?

There no way to bypass unit. This is a medical grade heating pad not a Wal-Mart brand. This is same pad they used at my Drs office for physical therapy.

No. You always have to use the timer. While that an be a little frustrating it is safer that way. Max on the timer is 60 minutes.

No, 60 minutes is the most the timer can be set. There is no bypass and I am assuming it's for safety purposes.

Yes. After three hours, it shuts off. You can reset the countdown by simply changing the heat settings, or by cycling through the settings to 'off' and back on to the original setting again.Edit: From the product description, "...Lightweight and portable with 3 heat settings and 3-hour auto-off. Auto-off feature provides safety and convenience. To bypass, just turn off and on again."

No, it doesn't have auto shut off. There's a button behind that you need on and off.

It shuts off automatically after 1 hour. I don't think you can override that.

yes. Turn off for three seconds and back on: will stay on all night (and then reset). Turn off another three seconds and back on: will be reset to 'security mode'

No. The unit (Amplifier) has a cable to sync with the Receiver to auto shutdown when not in use. It seems to work, mostly. :)

Short answer is no. You could disconnect the power to it. I keep it hidden, but if the need arises, I can reach and hit the reconnect button.

To answer this question, the answer is NO ...unless you preset it on auto to turn off it will not.

No - the adapter is just an alternate power supply. When using the adapter, the auto-off is disabled (it stays on until you turn it off).

No. You can leave it on for as long as you like. It would stay on stand-by mode.However the switch is easily accessible and I usually turn it off when I know that I am going to be away for some time.

I own two of these. Yes, they have an auto shutoff function that works consistently.

It has an auto shutoff that can be disabled. Take the control apart and unsolder the 2nd pin. Problem solved. I've been running mine 24 hours a day nonstop for 2 years without a problem

No. You can turn on and off as you please. The timer is just an added option.

There is no way to turn it off, but after a short time it powers off by itself. However, if you barely touch it, it will come back on again. I just put mine in a place where I won't bump it when I'm done.

Yes. The knob on the left is a temperature control. Once it reaches that set control it will automatically shut off.

I have not found an auto turnoff one....I sure would like it though....I forget to turn all of mine off very frequently. No Big problem if just 8 or so hours but guess it could be if left on for days.

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.
