Does this remote go into sleep mode after a few seconds or can it stay alive for longer? How responsive is it?

the remote does go to sleep (switch off) after a few seconds which is really annoying and I can't find any option to stop that from happening. One way round it is to continually press the light button or keep the shutter release half pressed.

It goes to sleep mode. Have not had a chance to see if you can set up a different time set. But you can probably google the manual & find out that way.

The remote will only go into sleep mode if you haven't set up any timed exposures. The remote is very responsive.

The remote goes into sleep mode in about a minute. It is quite responsive when it works, you might want to see my review.

It stays on all the time. You have to turn it off when not in use. The spec's say it uses 0.5W in stand-by, which I assume means off. It also uses up to 20W of power when on. However, when your TV set is off it is probably only using a small amount of power more than in stand-by. There is no "sleep mode" in the traditional sense where its smart enough to turn off itself.

My experience (about two weeks of use) has been inconsistent. The keyboard always goes to sleep in less than 15 minutes of non-use. Sometimes it is after only a minute, and at other times it may be after a few minutes. But because it is better than the previous brand I tried to use, and because it was so inexpensive, I've been able to tolerate the annoyance.

I used consistently for about 3 years before changing remotes. But has not been used for 3 years now. When used, about 3 hrs a day.

Yes there is a sleep timer function on the remote in increments from 15-120mins. There is also a selective feature in the menu that turns the set off after an extended period of time if there is no signal, or you do not use any of the functions on the set or remote. So yes, you can fall asleep it it on.

It has a sleep timer mode on it. It will shut off automatically after setting it for desired time.

it can take over an hour untouched to go in to sleep mode if that does not work try to reset it if all else fails contact the company.I had to contact them because both colliers worked at same time and on the same frequency but they contacted me back and resolved the issue within a couple days. I hope this helps you

Todd's experience above matches mine. I puts it in sleep mode but will not be cause it to resume.

The Mouse goes to sleep after a couple of minutes of being idle. Touch any button and it up and running instantaneously. I have been using mine for a couple of months and have not yet had to replace the battery.

Mine goes into sleep mode after about 15 minutes, it is not normal for it to stay on. I would exchange it.

My original remote worked fine for at least 3 years. It did not stop working until my granddaughter washed it. At that time I ordered another off of Amazon.com and it has also been working well.

Excellent question! This unique style of the remote to the collar allows to have a continuous connection. However this device is set up to where if the dog is not active in barking it will automatically set it to "sleep". The remote itself will turn it self to "sleep" as well after a few moments when not in use. (But to turn it back on you simply press down briefly the MODE button) Hope this helps!

It is not always on. I believe the timeout is set around 10 seconds before going back to sleep for default.

I don't seem to have this problem. I've not timed it, but I'm pretty sure mine stays on for well over a minute. Perhaps playing with the settings?

It times out at about 60 seconds, but it's easy to restart afterwards. I hope that helps. I didn't get the second question.

It works like an RF remote. I have been over 75' from my truck and it works great. But I did have issues with it turning on by its self and woke up to a dead battery. Not sure if its just the one I got or a flaw? But I just put it on a toggle switch which defeats the whole purpose but I have learned to live with it.
