Do you leave the Jeff Rowland Amp on all the time

I purchased this amp recently an am very impressed with the sound, however it takes a long time to warm up. Do any users leave the amp on all the time. I emailed Rowland but did not get an answer. I am also thinking about replacing my BAT VK-32SE with the Rowland Capri preamp.

It is important to check your butt for deer ticks...Brad Paisley even wrote a song about it (sort of). And I'm not surprised people leave their gear on all the time, I'm surprised anybody admits it.

I have a Rowland Capri and when I was using it I left it on all the time per the users manual. The manual also stated that in the winter it gives deer ticks a warm place to live so they stay away from your butt!

And Elizabeth, while your getting old and becoming mentally ill, enjoy the music!

Nothing to say indeed and despite deer ticks or pubic bugs, for me the only factor is $. If I could afford to run 100w idle(kind-of average between almost all models of JR) I would keep it on.
It's the following math for me $.15/kW/h * 24hrs * 365days = roughly $1500 annually.
