If left in the car, attached to the car's power via adapter, will it power on automatically as I turn the car on? Power button each time?

I don't use mine in the car. But when I stop playing my iPod for say 30 min. I don't have to power it on. I don' t know if that helps, but that is all I got, sorry.

The picture provided is not the one I have I have the USB with 3.5 mm jack and yes it will power off with the car as long as your power source powers off with ignition off the USB one has no power button it powers on by itself and stays in standby mode for awhile when no device is connected then powers itself off

Yes, it does work. The disadvantage is that you have to leave it plugged in all the time. If the plug is in an inconvenient place, you may hit it with your knee or other body part. Also, i'm not sure whether it uses power when the car is off. If it does, it could drain your battery over time.

no, and to me that's the biggest problem, i have to power it on every time. where it has to sit in my car and with such a short cable, it's a hassle.

I do not unplug mine whether in use or not. However my power is only on when the car is on.

Yes it does automatically turn on and off. Bc it hooks into the cigarette lighter. And there in also a button on it and manually turn it off and on.

About 30 seconds after you unplug it from vehicle power source. It must stay connected to power to operate. Not a problem for me as my vehicle allows the power outlet to stay powered without key in place.

It doesn't have auto power on. I has auto power off, though. You have to press and hold the middle button for a few seconds to turn it on. You walk away from your car with your phone, and it loses connection with your phone, then it'll turn off by itself in a few mintues.

The unit powers on any time the DC is applied. I leave this unit plugged in to a DC jack which turns on and off with the ignition key. I have not had to manually use the power switch on the unit to restart it.

Probably YES. It sounds like a defective item. Mine starts up whenever the power is turned on (the car is turned on) without any switch pushing or whatever.

Yes it does power on. I do the same thing. it also autoconnects with your iphone, and also make sure you keep your bluetooth on all the time. if you dont you will have to reconnect each time

I just turn it off when I leave the car, and on when I get back in the car. It says 'connected" and you are good to go!

For me, with an iphone 5, it does reconnect when I turn the car on. My power outlet is powered off when the car is off, not sure if that makes a difference.

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).

Nope. The car needs a power outlet that stays on all the time. Just about all recent cars [at most 1999 to present] have an always on power outlet although it may take a while to find it.

I have not read the manual regarding this buy I would say yes. We have it installed in our car and it turns on every time the car is started.
