A brief slide of the power switch puts the device in "standby", holding the switch longer than 3 seconds causes a hard reset. In "standby", the device consumes only a few mA, so you can have it around for weeks without charging.

Just received update from
iRex support (very responsive and friendly btw):
"I do apologize for the confusion.
The DR800 if "ON" will vary its power state depending on usage behavior. When "ON" and no buttons are pressed the device will go into power saving mode after some time.
When you press and hold the
switch to the left for 2-3 seconds the device will go into standby mode. Finally after some time it will switch "OFF": This is also a kind of standby state however with very low power consumption to allow for the device to start up quickly."
This makes sense of course. So I actually only put my unit to standby over night. But at some stage it turned off automatically. When turning it on again in the morning, of course I was under the impression, having turned it off myself.
Puh, I'm relieved. I've been a bit surprised, not having been able to reproduce the switching off this evening.
