Anyone had a problem with the Z2 drawing a ton of power while the car is off? My battery has been dying overnight and its because the Z2 is drawing 900 miliAmps when the normal draw for my car is 50 miliAmps while the car is off. Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

I see views but no replys. My guess is you fixed the problem with yours.

This was my solution.

 

I have the ipod adapter and factory amps in the car. My battery was fine when I drove the car every day. When it sat for 3 or more days it was toast.

 

I had wired the ipod adapter and the amp wake up wires directly to the battery wire. Moved them to the acc line and cleared the problem. :?
