Hi,
Sorry, I couldn't find answer to this easy question. When is the USB socket powered on?
I mean it is on when ignition is on. It is on when ignition off, but I switch on radio unit.
It seems to be still on, when ignition is off and I do not switch on radio.
And it is probably off, when I close the car. So for me it seems it is off only when the car is closed. Can someone confirm it? (Or have better info)
Thank you.

I'm using AAWireless and would like to know if I can leave it plugged it always, that's why I ask this. Anyway, I recommend it to everyone, works perfectly.

Your vehicle will switch off the USB after a set time to conserve the battery.

If the Head unit (radio) is switched on without the engine running, it will continue to play music on the USB for example, but only until the BSI engages energy saving mode. How long this is depends on the battery condition.

After you lock the vehicle, the the USB socket will power down after a certain time.
