They have an insert, with a magnetic core, which helps increase tip life by allowing the tip cartridge to idle at a lower temperature, thereby reducing oxidation. They do not shut the iron off, they reduce the power available to the tip while it is in the stand. The recovery time, from when the tip is removed from the Auto-sleep stand, is within seconds. The stand also includes a brass wire wool cleaning compartment to remove heavy oxidation build up associated with lead-free process.
