Adding a comment for a more complete answer, let's say you have two possible selections with a common prefix:

ip5, ip5 battery

if the user types in the textbox ip5, the first selection above will automatically get chosen without letting the user keep typing for the second selection, to avoid this behavior, make sure you use the option

triggerSelectOnValidInput: true,
