Paul C. Buff, the man running Alien Bee says this about the lack of power switch (from CyberSync Review.. - FM Forums):

I hate on/off switches on battery gear unless needed, CST is always sleeping, with a two year battery life and wakes up and transmits the signal all in 1/4000 second. Users regularly leave power switches on and find the battery dead when to use them

I've been doing tons of reading, and it looks like right now, the cybersyncs are at the sweetspot.
