Hello,
I have a Uniden BCD536HP with the with Uniden BC-GPSK installed in my vehicle. I'm having an issue with a parasitic drain killing the vehicle's battery, where the drain is measured at 800mA @13.4V. I'd like to rule out the scanner as the cause for this drain.
How much power should the scanner be drawing to be within spec when the scanner/GPS unit is powered down? I can't find this in the manual... hence asking here..
After I learn how much it should be drawing, I'm going to pull the scanner and measure it's actual draw as compered to what it should be drawing.
