Trickle charging via a 'live' 12v socket?

Featured Replies

Does anyone know if any of the 12v sockets in the Superb stay 'live' when the vehicle is not running or does the canbus shut them down? I'd like to use a solar trickle charger in the car this time of year to keep the battery topped up?

I charge my Landrover battery this way but had to use a mod to remove a relay and wire in a short to keep the sockets live when the car shutdown.

They both stay live all the time.

I've got 3 :-)

Cheers
