Automatic shutdown is a very wise measure.
The one I've got is really paranoid. The "unlock" button must be
pressed before a "burner" is powered. It can also be used to lock the
settings as well. If the burner gives up after about 30 seconds of a
"no pan" situation, it powers off--and locks again.
Oddly enough, I really appreciate that. More than once, I've left an
electric "coil" type burner on at a low setting, completely forgetting
about it...
