battery? If you use your car radio/cd player with it on and key out of the ignition-will it drain your battery? I have a 2009 chevy impala. The newer models you dont have to have your key in reverse in the ignition like you did on older models. The audio plays in 10 minute intervals then you have to stick the key in the ignition, pull it out to start the audio again. Will this drain your battery without car running? Thanks
About once or twice a week i work in my garage and use my car audio in this manner- maybe an hour and a half at a time. The audio shuts itself off at 10 minute intervals.
