RXV Amp draw when parked w/key off

[Cobra,1]

Check to see if you have 12 volts from the convertor or 12 volts going to one of your 12 volt accessories with key off. If so convertor is always on causing the slight draw with key off.
I had to add a switch and relay to turn my convertor on/off so it did’nt drain battery over time.

Seem to remember convertor drew 1 amp even when no accessories were on.

That is about what I am seeing.

Good point, I did not think about that.
