The pinhole reset restarts the device without attempting to save any data. It should only be used if the device stops responding. It is the equivalent of hitting the reset button on a PC.

Powering off by holding the power button in the off position for three or four seconds will do a shutdown. It should save the current status properly to the database.

Powering off by holding the power button in the off position for about 10 seconds will force a power off. Like the pinhole reset, it won't save any data first.
