Does it have auto power off?

Yes, it has an auto off. My last Taylor lasted for years on a single battery because of this feature.

IS THIS THERMOMETER GOOD FOR CANDY

It should work for candy as long as you're not planning on leaving the thermometer in the oven or leaning against the side of a hot pot on the stove. The housing is plastic so it will melt if it gets too hot. I'm not really sure how candy is cooked so I can't say for sure. This thermometer is designed for quick temperature checks during preparation. I use it to check the internal temp. of grilled and broiled meats mainly.

Can anyone tell me what battery it uses?
