Default Installed new system - have a question
I installed the Aquatic head unit, amp, speaker system in my FLHTC today, and have a question about the iPod.... if I leave it inside the head unit and plugged in, does it draw constant power, and risk draining my battery?

I can't seem to find any answers anywhere....

I have the same unit and leave an iPod Nano plugged in all the time and I have never had an issue.

I had the Aquatic in my previous bike-ipod nano plugged in all the time. Never had an issue.
