Will it burn up if it gets stuck in one place if you're not home

When it gets stuck, it shuts down and beeps. It's like 8 quick beeps every 10-15 minutes or so. I've had it get stuck at night right when I go to bed and its perfectly fine in the morning.

It hasn't happened to me, but my guess is that it will shut itself off after a while.

I wouldn't recommend keeping one plugged in any longer than it needs to dry out. It does get warm and over time it might ruin the heating element; assuming there is one. But probably the bigger issue would be the wasted electricity. I hope this helps.

Only if the shed is airtight and there is NOTHING burnable or flammable in the shed. Otherwise you probably won't have a shed left.

I had the same question. My solution is to keep it in the closet in the house until we are ready to go out. I do the same with any liquid item, batteries, etc., that the AZ heat is likely to destroy.

It gets hotter than I thought but it won't burn you in the short time you would be able to keep your hand on it. If for some reason you could not pull away from it I could see where you could get a nasty burn from it. I bought it to replace an oil filled space heater in my son's room and it is much better than that heater. I was worried he would get out of bed and touch it and get burnt. He has touched this one and knew it was hot and now he leaves it alone. He didn't get burnt when he touched it but did pull his hand away and say hot.

Make sure you bought the one for ng and not propane. I sure wouldn't burn it if your alarm keeps sounding.

Yes, it just sits on top of the ground. It can be moved, if you want to change it's location. It doesn't move on it's own. We may have kind rotated it a wee bit to sink it in the ground a quarter of an inch? We live in FL, so our ground is sandy and easy to do that.I thought the same thing about being unsafe, but friends reassured me. Dirt doesn't burn and the ring itself keeps the fire contained with the ring. Also, if it makes you feel better, you can always pick up 4-6 flat cement squares to use as a base below the ring. It is really fun! We have had teenagers and their families over to chat around the fire and roast marshmallows. Good clean family entertainment. Enjoy! Yes, it just sits on top of the ground.

If sparks hit the sail it could have little pin hole melted spots. Recommend don't BBQ directly under sail.

Not always, would burn it up. I do leave it plugged up sometimes when I use it if power gets low with no problem.

It may have an odor upon opening it, and using it for the first few times. It should quickly burn off. Remember, this is using the power a small window air conditioner or a portable electric heater. Keep an eye on it for the first few uses, but I think you'll be fine.

YES it will burnout faster than you can turn the power off. Look for an electric charcoal starter but be very careful they become very very hot

I would doubt if it would run it down if you caught it the next day. The thing I would be concerned about is the scent pad you put the oil on. The pad will dry out after a hour or two. I have mine plugged into my lighter plug. My phone is plugged in my accessory port. I would think that the pad could catch fire if it get too dried out. I would unplug it after you leave your car.

No this iron will continue to be hot until you unplug it. Hope this helps ☺

Maybe if you stored in one room and did not plan on transporting in a vehicle. It's fragile. I recommend the dewalt version. Bought one in a hurry on sale at Home Depot. Would have ordered from amazon but needed one quick because this item fell apart

I believe that as long as you store this unit without tipping it on its sides, the movement while driving itself won't affect your ability to use it. Leave it on its feet when you store it in your RV.

Yes it would, but I'd be cautious about putting it into a camper. It's set for outside heating, and inside it could get too hot. it doesnt have a sensor on it to detect if things are getting too hot so if you left it on overnight you might get a fire.....

Not advised, but not the end if the world. I wouldn't do it at home for sure. But on a trip it shouldn't matter as long as it doesn't leak. However, I don't take that chance. The risk of fuel leaking our evaporating at home or in a backpack isn't worth it to me. I would strongly advise to store it with the intended cap, for the sake of risk management.
