Can this burner be turned off while plugged in?

Yes it can be turned off while plugged in. The dial just gets turned all the way off. It however can be easily turned back on if someone bumps the dial so it can be dangerous around kids.

Yes. Unit does not have a on/off switch so it must be unplug to turn it off. My 93 year mother keeps her 2 units plugged all the time without any problems.

You can't turn it off unless you unplug it. It's the same temperature while plugged in.

No, you have to turn it off. You don't need to unplug it from the cigarette lighter to turn it on/off, because it has a main control.

No. The instructions specifically tell you to unplug it immediately after using.

No, the cooker goes from Cook into Keep Warm mode until you unplug the device.

The unit is loud with the fan and burner going. Also you have a confined space, where the outlet is pointed is of concern. Again confined space, air quality will be an issue, possibly lethal.

Does not turn off automatically. You would always know it was on because the only way it heats, is to also blow air.

As to the answer I am sorry you cannot turn it off and it does stay on in stand-by mode. If you want it off unplug the usb.

Yes, we only unplug the unit when changing paraffin. We also turn unit off after dipping. Imagine the mess trying to clean up hot paraffin if the unit falls or tips on carpeting!! Be sure to remove the grate after dipping as it may increase melt time for next use. Don't know if heat would deform grate or not. Hope this is useful.

You can always turn OFF the circuit breaker, timer or not. You would have to reset the timer when you turn back ON. This would be my first choice for long periods of idle, for safety reasons. What is not ON can not burn up.

I use it primarily unplugged unless I am on for extended periods of time. Occasionally I have had too much data combined with long periods of use that require I plug it in because it gets so hot.

No, the unit is either on or it's off. It does not shut itself down. I leave mine on 24/7 since it draws very little power when not playing music.
