does unit stay on at all times as mine turns off after 5 min or so

On mine the lights go out after a few minutes but the actual unit keeps working as a booster.

The display powers off after a few minutes but I think the amp stays powered up. You can turn it off manually. The unit performs well. Pulls in many more stations than the original amp in my Winnebago.

They all turn off the lighting, but unit is still on and working. If you want to turn unit off put it in cable mode.

Yes, its designed to turn off the lighting. Don't need it on after initial station search, yet it still gives a power boost on incoming signal. Every little bit of power conservation helps when dry camping in the RV. As you probably have found, the unit is suburb! Very happy with my investment.

The digital display turns off to conserve battery I guess. But the unit itself does continue working on mine as long as it is not set in cable tv mode.

No, mine doesn't but if I want to do that I can turn it off and than on again. It has settings 9, 18, 35min.

Expanding on Theresa's answer, I left mine on for hours recently and it did not turn off.

This unit will stay on, but after several idle minutes it will go into a power saver mode, the LCD readout will go dim and will stay that way until the unit is used again. If you turn the unit off, the readout goes into clock mode displaying the current time. For the price this is a very good item!

I don't know. It was in my house for an hour and then back in the box. I think it can stay on. The timer may just be an option...

two of the reviews state that it shuts off in 20-30 mins... and two answers here say it stays on????

There is an auto off switch which places the unit in standby if it has not received a signal for a specific period (I think it is 30 mins). But there is not an auto on function. I disabled the auto off function because my unit is connected only to a pc and if I booted with the TEAC off and started my preferred Media player the driver did not function correctly. So my unit is always on

Never. When it hits the set temperature, it shuts right off. The only criticism I have is that you can hear the click when it turns on or off. This is not a silent unit. It's not an important factor to me but I know it matters to others.

I use mine as needed, it stays on for about 15 minutes then turns off, if needed just start it again.

Yes, There are 3 settings: on, off, and timer. On will keep it on until you turn it off. Timer leaves it on for 5 hours and will turn it on for another 5 hours the next day.

No, I normally only turned the unit on while at work, approximately 8 hours. I did leave it on for about 12 hours once. I only had the unit around a week before it malfunctioned.

We never had a problem and it does not shut off. You should check with manufacturer to see if it can be a defective unit

My unit shuts off autatically if I leave it on. Also I'm not aware of any alarm to indicate a full filter.

Yes, it will turn itself off after 60 minutes. It will give you a warning that it is going to turn off so you have the option to keep it on.

Mine have been in since I bought it, so over a month so far. They say two months, longer if you turn off when not in use. Mine has been on 24/7.

No "on/off" switch. Whatever time you put the batteries in the unit it stays on for 5 hours and repeats daily.

Mine doesn't shut off unless I tell it to, or it gets unplugged. But the time for the keep warm function turns off after 12 hrs I think.
