Is there a way to turn it off or does it just burn till its out of fluid? Thanks

you have to let it burn all the way out or you can try to carefully take out the inner cap and that might smother it out to

Leave it in the cloth sack and put it in a zip lock bag. It will run out of oxygen

In my experience an impact will turn it off. Smack it a couple of times on the broad side (while it is in the bag) and it should stop producing heat. Discovered this after taking a tumble while skiing. Not fun!

Yes. put on some gloves or take a pot holder and lift the burner off of it. Your fluid will evaporate away if you don't relight it right away though.

It burns until it is out of fluid. It has a little plastic measuring cup with a spout that has 2 lines; I think one says 6 hours and one says 12 hours. You put as much fuel in it as you want. It doesn't burn like a flame, it is supposed to burn like an ember. I haven't perfected it yet, but when I did get it working and it burned for multiple hours, I did like it.

Zippo tells you to let it burn out on it's own but you can just take the catalytic top off. Let it cool down completely for maybe 10 minutes or more and it's done burning.

It burns until it out of fuel. I guess you could put in an airtight container to extinguish the burner prior to all the fuel being consumed.

You do have to unplug. unplug before removing from liquid, or it will blow!

As Anna said, it depends on water hardness. Maybe mine was defective, but it did not turn off even after running out of water, just heated up to nearly molten temperature.

We never shut ours off.... however it goes into sleep mode and when I pull up the the part to release the pod it dooes make a hissing noise which is the extra pressure being released and then is sounds like a slight whining sound while it prepairs itself for the next use. However er have had 2 machines and for several years (gave one to my sister because I wanted a different color) and both did the same thing since the first use and one machine is 3 and the other 1.5 years old. If the sound is very loud I would call customer support. Hope it helps.

The handwarmer isn't designed to be turned on and off. Once its going you have to let it burn through its fuel. However of course you can definitely find ways to interrupt the burner and stop. There is just not a function built in for that purpose

I have asked, and did not get an answer from the company. If you find out a way to shut it off, PLEASE let me know.

there is in the handle, or you can just turn it off. Buy this thing you won't regret it. i'm on my 2nd one.

Really. It should turn off by itself. Best to contact manufacturer. However, I must say this product isn't easy to use.

You can turn it off at the base. It does not have to be full, just need a little bit of water.

It runs until it is out of water then the lights start flickering on and off indicating that you should unplug it or put more water in it. I've never let it run past this point so I do not know if it turns itself off.

The hot element can be turned off. This unit started leaking within 90 days of purchase, I do not recommend.

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.

The lights can be turned off. It runs constantly until the liquid is gone or you shut it off.It shuts off automatically when the liquid is gone.

Unfortunately, no. I have accidentally left mine on for long periods of time and luckily have had no steam/burning/problems; but I sure do wish there was an auto shut-off for safety!

I think the only way you can turn the water off at the unit is to put a nozzle on the hose, just make sure it doesn't leak. It would probably be better to move the bush.

Do you bleed the line before removing the tank? I shut off the tank then press the trigger until no more air comes out. I use a remote coil with a quick connect. Doing this I've never had air seep afterward Hope that helps

Try to bleed out the system. Hold down the gas button for like 15 seconds then hit the ignite button. Fire should light. If no fire then theres no gas. If the fire starts hold the gas down for another 10 seconds then let go. It should stay on. If that doesn't work then the sensor in it might have died. Cant remember the name of the sensor but that happened to me before. When it died i just bought a new one.
