1. What type of battery are you running (e.g., OEM, YT, RT or other) and model if you know it?
2. Any after market electronics that could possibly add to the key-off drain?
3. What is the longest you have had the H3 sit without a dead battery?

I'll go first

1. RT Series 25
2. None (but do have OEM grille lights and SMA roof lights)
3. About 1-2 week before battery is dead (Ford Explorer can sit a month+)

alrity

1. OEM
2. Tons of aftermarket electronics (parasitic drain is around 70 mA at initial key off)
3. 2 weeks +

dont know how this helps
