I'd rather not have the continual drain , even if it is low.
Looks like I'll have to try and find a route through from the engine bay for
a permanent 12v though
I didn't bother with the 12v switched when I last fitted a car kit- just
pggybacked it all off the fag lighter- and never had any problems.

Be careful - I had to call out the AA a couple of weeks ago - I have a
4-way adaptor in the centre cubby with sat-nav, phone and PDA chargers
plugged into it.

I parked the car up for 5 days or so, left everything plugged in, and
came back to a battery so flat, I couldn't start the car.
