We leave ours on all day Matthew.
Heat presses are thermo' controlled so I guess in a way, they stop drawing lots of current when they've reached temperature & just 'top-up' when they drop temperature.

also may be worth to lower the temp down to 140-150C. so its not so hot and it takes quicker to get to 185-195C if needed.
