Stays on all the time. Raises the temp of my beta bowl about 5 degrees above room temp.

It stays on all the time, so you need to be careful when the weather gets warmer or you have some warm days in the middle of the winter. be sure to buy a thermometer. I use the little flat ones for my one and a half gallon vase that I kept my beta in. If it starts getting too warm, just pull the plug. I had my beta for almost 2 years, but got busy and didn't pay any attention to him for several weeks except to put some food in his bowl.I later found out he had passed away, and I remembered it had gotten warmer, so it had probably gotten too warm for him. actually, this is a really great heater. If its really cold, you may need two.

When I used it , it stayed on all the time. I had to unplug it if it got too warm. It is not regulated.

I don't know. I turn my heater off at night. It heats my house well when I turn it on in the mornings. I love it!

Yes it shuts off when it reaches the temp you set it to. If the temp falls bellow it will turn on again and off again when temp is reached.

There is a timer on the heater. Once your room reach the desired temperature it will automatically stop and come back on once the temperature drops below your desired temperature.

Yes,,,it shuts off when it gets to the desired temp. This is a great heater,,,Ive had one for years. On the coldest days it will heat a room quick. Highly recommend this heater.

it shuts off completely. I have mine set as low as it goes and keeps things very comfortable. It turns on automatically to keep the temp constant.

You need to make sure you shut it off at the switch. It seems to cycle the heater briefly on an off until the switch is off.

It is on all the time, which is why I bought a temperature-controlled outlet to plug it in to (which then is plugged into the outdoor outlet). This little outlet turns on at 35 degrees (and stays on as the temperature goes lower) and goes off at 45 degrees so my water bowl doesn't have to be on all the time. Before I had the outlet my bowl was always going dry because the water was always warmed even when it didn't need to be. Look up Thermo Cube Outlet on Amazon. Good luck.

This heater is equipped with the 1Touch Thermostat. When ambient temperature rises above the set temperature, the heater will stop. When the ambient temperature drops below the set temperature, the heater will turn on automatically.

It does have a switch on the bottom that turns the unit off if it tips over. If set back upright, the heater will turn back on.

This heater has a thermostat built in that you can adjust to your desired temp. once turned on it will turn on if needed and not run when not needed. It also has a built in auto-shut off in the unit gets too hot, fire prevention device. Works and heats very well.

There is a temperature setting and a timer. The unit will stay on until the set temperature is reached. The will shut off completely at the end of the timer. I get home from work, set it for 68 degrees and 4 hours. It keeps the area at 68 degrees until about 10PM when the timer is up. I don't need to worry about turning it off before bed.

Unfortunately, no, it does not. I have accidentally shut the light switch that this is powered to and it will not come back on when I turn the switch back on. You have to turn it back on and reset the temperature BUT it is still a great heater. I have it in my son's room and it really keeps the temp steady at 70 degrees. And setting the temp is very easy. Hope this helps!

Nope from my experience it turns on at the temp set. Meaning it will turn on every 10-20minutes to keep it at 68 in a drafty house or poorly insulated place.

It does not seem to shut off to keep a low temp. There are two lights and the on light stays on. The other light tell you when the temp you selected has been reached. It will stay on until you maybe cut the temp down.

It turns itself off on auto mode whenever it gets to the correct temperature. We leave it on in the bathroom overnight so that the temp never falls too far in the winter. Actually, I leave it on all winter on auto mode. We just adjust the setting if we feel it needs to be warmer or cooler. Hope this helps :)
