how long will the car run before it automatically shuts off?

It runs 5-10 minutes, no longer than 15. My husband said he thinks you can program it to run longer. He didn't mess with it.

I'm not sure what the default setting was, but if you take a look at the installation manual you can set it for the times i mentioned. Hope this helps!!(Page 19)http://voxxintlcorp.com/docs/common/APS901C/APS901C_IM.pdf

It goes for 15 minutes and then automatically shuts off. You have to restart it for additional time.

It will probably keep running. The car does not shut off if the key is not there.

Yes it does auto shut off in about 6 to 8 minutes. Very accurate would buy again!

YES! It does have auto shut off actually. Auto shut off happens after 60 minutes of it not being used. Ive found it super handy cause I am kind of ocd about making sure things are unplugged when I leave my house. See this link also stating auto shut off http://www.amazon.com/Conair-Infiniti-CD117X-Original-Packaging/dp/B003F2T0M4

My car would start and run and when the enging got warm, the engine would shut off automatically. If you are trying to remotely cool your car, you dont want the enging shutting off.

Yes, but you still have to unplug it when you start your car. Also if its anything like the one of got it wont last more than a few hours anyway.

15 minutes, it has an automatic shut off, so you don't have to worry about it..

The directions say it's supposed to run down for a few minutes before it shuts off. I think you need to just push the upper red button and not the power supply on the rear.

It shuts off automatically after an hour, but you can turn it back on if you want it to go longer.

Auto shut off kicks in after 60 seconds of idle.No. You have to touch it/use it within the 60 secs period.

No, you will have to shut it off manually. Since it isn't an integral part of the car's electronics system, but has its own battery and is detachable from the recharging unit, it runs on its own. I haven't found it to be too much of a hassle to shut it off manually. The good part is, if it is not connected to a device for a certain number of minutes, it WILL shut off automatically, so you could just allow it to do that each time you exited your car.

If you leave it on in your car it will automatically turn off after 30 minutes.

It depends on how you connect it to your car. If you connect it directly to the battery then your car does not need to be on. If you plug it into your cars cigarette lighter / auxiliary power port, it will depend on whether your cars power port requires the ignition switch to be in the "accessories" position to proovide power to the power port. The engine itself does not need to be on as the inverter can run directly on battery power. As with any device using power from your car, you will want to prevent it from draining your battery and preventing you from starting your car up when necessary, so I would recommend not using it too long without letting your engine run to recharge the batteries. That being said how long it will run and still , allow you enough power to start your car depends on too many factors, like how high capacity your battery is, how old it is, condition of battery, are other accessories on your car running at the same time etc.... I personally have used it without the car being "on" for 30 minutes.
