Maintain Power

A maintained power can be kept up as long as power points are spent on it. You can choose to expend the points in advance or as the power is used, expending maintenance points any time before the duration ends.

Example: Nahal, a 7th-level seer, has learned the power Danger Sense, and can use it for 7 hours for a cost of 5 power points. Using Maintain Power, she can increase the duration by 50% to 10.5 hours for 1 point. At any time before this duration ends, Nahal can choose to increase the duration to 14 hours by expending a second power point (the same as using the Extend feat). For a third point she can extend it 17.5 hours, and so forth. So long as she has points to spend, she can continue to extend the duration of the power, and additional points may derived from an item if she chooses. Normal: Powers cease at the end of their listed duration based on the user's level. Special Notes: None.
