Can I leave it on all the time so I don't have to manually turn it on to pair it? Will it go to sleep?

You can, but the battery will go down. You could leave it plugged in, and it would pair anytime you turned your mobile device on. I do not know what the long-term effects would be on it leaving it on constantly. I use mine in the classroom, and normally leave it on during the day - just turn my phone off when I want it off.

The battery lasts around 4-8 hours on full charge so you can leave it on till it dies, I don't believe it goes to sleep if inactive.

We leave it in the shower and turn it on and off. You hold he power button down for 3-5 seconds and as soon as it powers up it connects to your phone that has Bluetooth turned on. I turn off my Bluetooth once I am done because it sucks my battery if I leave it on. When I turn my Bluetooth back on I then select the device. I am unsure of what will happen if you have two devises in the room at the same time trying to connect.... We love ours. It is surprisingly loud. You control the volume on the phone. I hope that helps.

I leave mine in all the time. As long as the Bluetooth stays active on your phone it should still connect when you hit play.

Its automatic i believe. You have to select it on you phone each time but the device its self turns on automatically when paired.

No. You can leave bluetooth off, and just turn it on when you want to control the bulb.

You dont have to turn it on and off every time you get in and out the car, unless you plan to be out of your car for long period of time like work, gym, ect.. After so many hours it will turn itsself off to conserve the battery, and you will have to turn it back on. Just make sure you have your Bluetooth connected to it at all times while in and out of your car and remember to keep it charged for optimum usage. It sounds great in the car and is very convenient. The only thing I dont like is when you have to answer the phone...me personally I dont like to answer the phone via Bluetooth. Other than that its a great product. I have 2, one for home and another for my car.

Yes it turns on with the vehicle start. Also, once paired, the smart device will auto pair at start as well.

Yes, it stays on all the time, although in a low-power mode after being inactive for a while. It's always ready to respond to Airplay from a device like an iPhone. Mine is plugged in and ready all the time except when I unplug the power to carry it down to the basement or next to my exercise bike.

Yes it puts it into sleep mode. Make sure you buy cover they supports this function. Haven't noticed any significant battery life reduction in this mode.

The unit does go into a low power 'sleep' after you've moved far enough away from it. If you're car is within 30 feet of where you are it will likely stay connected. This happened to me just the other day. Once you're back in the car just tap the call button and it will wake up and connect to your phone.

Yes you can turn it on and off, in fact to turns itself off if disconnected for a bit. I also found that my phone will not auto connect to it like it does with my car, I need to reconnect (not re-pair) each time I turn it on.

Yes! Once you've paired this to your phone, it will connect automatically of it is still awake. If it sits idle too long, it will go to sleep. However, once you push the button on the Xtreme and your phone's Bluetooth is on, it auto-connects

It does go to sleep after a period of no audio being sent, which is great, because it keeps the battery from dying. To wake it back up, you need to turn it off, then on.

Yes. It comes with a remote which is the only way to turn it off. Though you can cause it to sleep by holding the pause/play button on the speaker (not the remote) for three seconds. To turn it on again (without the remote) you simply touch the same button and the whole thing comes to life again.

Hi.. There is no sleep mode for the dock. You will have to switch it off using your remote. The remote is very basic and has only the Power, Volume adjustment and track change buttons

Sure, u should pair it first. And good to go. It's pretty easy to pair. You will be amazed once you get it.

It is always on if there is power, sometimes it doesn't auto connect if it is on before in range but there are multiple phones that use mine so that May effect it.
