Using the power switch to turn on the device: It did not time out after over 5 minutes of waiting
Using the sleep cover: timed out between 65-70 seconds
So your theory on the short timeout happening regardless of how the device is turned on is invalid here as it only occurs when using the sleep cover(with firmware 2.3.1). Using the strap it is nearly impossible to accidentally open the cover. The argument of preventing accidental wake up is decent but I don't buy it given the above fact. At the very least there should be an option to set the sleep cover timeout to something longer.

But a theory backed by experimental verification with firmware v2.4.0. I noticed it when I had a tech manual open and when I looked back from the computer screen about a minute later, the Glo was returning to sleep mode. I had not noticed this prior to the 2.4.0 upgrade but with 2.4.0, the short timeout behaviour is consistent with either method of waking up my Glo.
