Can this device be left always on, or will the timer always shut it off?

I've left ours on since it arrived a few weeks ago. It has a timer you can activate but by default it will stay on indefinitely.

its always on if its plugged in, the only way to turn it off is to unplug it

yes.that is how I use it, an external timer that goes on and off, plug this device into the timer.

the Sedu does not have a timer, and since I have not forgotten to turn it off I can't really tell you if it would turn off on it's own. Sorry

Yes. When you set the timer switch duration, it will reset every time the power to the switch turns off, in anticipation of the next "on" cycle.

No, if you disconnect power you must manually turn it on. Cannot use it with an external timer.

Not sure, but I set the timer if I'm going to be multi-tasking. ;) And then it shuts off at the appointed time.

Yes, if you put it in the "ON" position it will stay on all the time. I leave it in the "ON" position and have it hooked up to a timer plugged into the wall.

I'm pretty sure that the only timer is that you can set it to run for a period of time and then have it shut off. Similar to a tv where you punch in for it to turn off by itself in 1 hour for example. If there's another way to set it up I haven't figured out how.

I would not recommend this timer to replace any device. It is very unreliable.

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.

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.

Since I use a timer to control the period of "charging", I do not have that knowledge. The timer, of course, has to remain ON all the time to keep the time. I doubt that the power goes off in the smartstrip "always on" group or the name would not be "always on".

I just leave mine ON all the time. I don't think it has a 'standby' mode per se - at least I don't think it does - but doesn't seem to matter.

Just an on/off switch. It's essentially a kill switch for the power to the device, preventing you from having to unplug the device. No timer functions though.

It turns off at the timer was set but it turns back on again without any motions. So basilly, it's on all the time.

Touch the button on the right and the timer will go off. That button turns it on and off.
