Just installed my new purchase; an APC H15. Should I leave this unit on at all times, or control it with the 12v trigger to turn on when the AVR is turned on? Am I loosing any protection when the unit is off? The manual isn't very clear on this. Thanks
Parasound HCA-2003A & 2205A
Front: Rti12's
Center: Csi A6
Side surrounds: Polk Rti A1's
Atmos: Mirage Nanosats
APC H15
Power cords by Pepster, Morrow MA4 IC's, AQ Midnight, AQ Chocolate HDMI's[/SIZE]
The rest is TBD.

    I leave mine on all the time and unplug on vacations. I like the dimmer function that all lights can be turned off. Great unit.

    Leave it on, page 6 in the manual.
    On/Off switch
    Controls power to all 12 outlets. APC recommends the unit be
    left ‘on’ at all times.

    I use an H15 in my HT system. It's been on continuously for several years straight and I have never once had any issues. It's been a solid unit for me. Especially given it's relatively low price.
