Do these headphones have automatic shutoff? What if you fall asleep or forget to turn them off?

The transmitter unit shuts off when there's no input for a certain length of time. The headphones do not shut off automatically. They must be shut off manually.

None. They work perfectly. The only delay is when you first turn them on. They take a couple of seconds to synch with the base. Typically, I turn off the headphones whenever I'm done using them to save batteries.

They go off after like 10mins if u don't use em. U can turn the knob to off and on again or wait bout 10secs after playing something.. They said they got it cuz of the European regulations and it saves electricity

Hi Alex,I would say that you're probably safe to fall asleep in these occasionally. The build quality is very impressive, and you do get a 2 year warranty on the M-100's. As long as you don't make a habit out of it, consistently sleeping in these headphones, I'd wager you'll be safe!

I like these headphones a lot except at certain periods for days at a time they will go off every 3 minutes. I have to turn my TV off and back on generally 2-3 times and then they will come back on. I have tired everything I know. Unplugg them for several minutes. Then some of the time they work fine and I have no problem. I have ask the store I purchased them form and many other people and no one can tell me what might be causing the problem. My husband and I both have our own TV on either side of our bed. He wears headphones and I wear these. There seems to be no corelation between him having his on or off. Can anyone help me.

They stay on all night unless you turn them off manually. The batteries last a long time too.

No the sound effects do not have an on / off or volume feature. They stay on.

I had the same problem and the next day they ended up braking. It should turn off on its own, if not I believe their is a small button you would have to press with a pin. Anyways I upgraded to some MeElectronics and they working great and battery life is terrific. Sound is easy better then these as well.

They don't have an automatic turn off but they are the best irons I have ever purchased. You will be pleased.

If you lay carefully on your back. They are too bulky to lie on your side, and since the controls are in the back, if you accidently turn the volume knob, you'll get a rude awakening (even if you weren't trying to sleep.)

Yes, they will work without power and the battery fully drained. Just use the included audio cable/cord and plug into your device and you can still listen. Of course the noise canceling and audio processing will no longer work but you can still listen if you forget to charge the headphones or run out of juice on a flight/trip.

Sharon, I can confirm for certain that the two I received this past weekend do NOT have auto shut-off. I put them under my seedlings, turned them on, and they're still truckin' with no attention from me. I might also add that these get HOT--far hotter than my old ones, which I keep on high. I tried that with these, and quickly realized that 'low' was in order...

Yes, they power off. Doesn't matter if they are paired or using the wired connection. It's highly annoying, and I have not found a way around it.

Not entirely sure what you mean, but, they have a clearly marked mute switch on the cord - but they do not indicate if your computer sound is muted, only the headphones.

First and foremost, it's not that great for your ears to fall asleep to music with headphones on, regardless of what type they are. But to answer your question, I've found that they're quite comfortable to lay down on. When I'm laying on my side with them, they feel a bit fragile, but there's little to no pressure at all.

Short answer is yes. They have a stand by mode, but shut off fully after a few minutes. In stand by, you can use the remote to power on or back into stand-by. I wish they would stay in stand-by, but it is probably designed to save batteries when not plugged in. I usually just leave them powered on and turn down the volume.
