does this meter turn off automatic

No it does not. However since it's analog there is no on/off. It uses zero power. Only time is in ohms setting and not then

I guess the answer is yes. It does not draw power when it is not being used. Unless of course if it is left in one of the ohm reading positions and the test leads were touching each other in your tool bag causing the meter to deflect. Also on Rx1 position there is beeper that sounds. I love the feature but it would draw down the batteries if left on and the leads touched. It's a great meter. I love it. I always put it in a voltage reading position then put it back in the tool bag. Hope this helps.

The battery is only used when measuring resistance and continuity, so automatic turn off is not required. Hope this answers your question.

Yes, the scale does have the auto off feature, but I don't know how long it takes. I haven't used it enough times to find out and the accompanying literature doesn't say. I bought this scale because it's used by Old Dominion Soap Company (odsoap.com) where I took lessons in how to make soap. Th owner has many of these scales and recommended it highly. She may be able to answer your question.Her name is Carole Kindel.

No, it does not turn on automatically nor do I believe it turns off automatically.

No it does not auto shut off. Maybe4 it ought to... but it has no on or off switch... you plug it in and unplug it... these are the only controls...

No it doesn't auto shut off you would need to spin the dial back on your own to get it to stop.

Hi! Sorry it too me so long to answer. I do not know the answer to this question. I am not what you call tech savvy! I always operate this manually so I did not even know it turns off automatically! Good Luck Carefree Dude!!!

The meter will turn off after a certain amount of time, therefore periodic usage is recommended. Extended usage will require more cleanings and recalibrations.

I purchased this iron to use with interfacing and transfers. Frankly I am a bit anal about turning off my things and cannot accurately answer your question. That being said the instructions do not mention an automatic shut off function.

I have thrown away the packaging so I am not sure, although I have a new one still packed that says it does have an automatic shut off.

I have mine set to "auto" so I assume it turns off when the thermostat reaches a certain level & vice versa but will monitor it more closely now that the questions has been asked.

Yes, there is a manual on/off switch.it does not turn itself off automatically.

Not that I know of but I like the auto shutoff as I forget to turn it off. This does have a longer on time then my old scale did.

Sorry for my slow response. I dont remember automatic shut off...in fact I remember worrying I might forget to unplug it and drain my battery. But the warmth was worth the risk!

No auto off. Got mine to circulate water from my pool in through a solar heater, hooked up to a solar panel. Only operates when the sun is out.

No, and don't by a rule automatic, they run off a very weird sequence of operation. They actually turn on every 5 minutes and measure current. They can run your battery down and not be as reliable as a float style.

I don't know. But I can tell you that it's a piece of junk. And it doesn't have an automatic off switch.

Yes, it turns off automatically. I have had this for almost a year and like it.
