Is there any way to get this to stay on all the time or do you have to keep resetting the timer?

Restart it. But it has A 180 min setting You have to fill it up with water anyway

After the timer turns off you have to set it again. The longest timer is 180 min. There is no setting to keep it on all night.

I don't seem to have this problem. I've not timed it, but I'm pretty sure mine stays on for well over a minute. Perhaps playing with the settings?

Try to do a manual reset and see if that works first. When you do a manual reset ( see instructions) you can then start over again. This timer/switch isn't at all hard to set. I set mine when I first got it and plugged it in and its been running almost a month now without fail. Hope this helps out.

The timer is on for four hrs and then it will turn off automatically. The following day if will turn on exactly at the same time you turned it on for another four hrs and so on. I believe if you don't use batteries for the time that might do the trick so that it is turned on all the time, but you will have to test to find out. I haven't tried it myself.

Yes! Set it for 1 min. When it goes off, it automatically resets back to 1 min.

It does stop automatically after so many minutes. I have never timed it. I just turn it back on if I want it to run longer

Have had mine for a few days, and I can't get the timer button to work. Any clues?

I also have never got the timer/clock to work even after uninstalling, reinstalling, switching wires, reading instructions over and over, praying and being overall pissed. Have been manually using it as a switch for the off/on operation until I rip it out for the last time and toss it. Clock does not seem to keep time.

I set mine on "timer" and then switched it to "on". It worked for a while but about half of my timers wouldn't hold the actual time so they wouldn't come on at the right time.

This happened to me also. Just press the timer/clock button on the lower left and it should reset properly.

Seriously ? Mine never stops unless I power it off. The only thing I can think of is something with the timer setting. Maybe you have the timer set to go off every few minutes. Can you get a stopwatch and get some data on the intervals of on/off ? Maybe unplugging it will reset it if it is for some reason set by the timer option. If that doesn't reset it then perhaps it is malfunctioning. It definitely sounds like timer related.

This happened to me also. I noticed that the little tabs that determine when the timer goes on were bumped and not fully in or out. I set them correctly, either in or all the way out, and it's been working correctly since. I hope this helps you.

timer function is independent of the on function. So it will run continuously if you just turn it on.

It stays on all the time unless you specifically turn it off. We never do and it works fine.

It will stay on when it is plugged in until you turn it off or use the timer to turn it off for you. I hope this answers your question.

You must reset the timer every day which is not difficult once you get the hang of it! BTW: I highly recommend this seller.

Hi, we have not had any issues with our timer. Best of luck getting it working correctly.
