    Just wondering if anyone would know if leaving the USB plugged in with the car is off drains the battery at all? Should I unplug it when I shut the car off or is it ok to just leave it plugged in? Thanks in advance.... :)

    I need to check, but i believe that my Ipod shuts off when the engine is turned off...so, it should not drain the battery.

    I checked tonight...when you turn the car off, USB power goes off.
