Default Sct x4 ?

Just a question, recieved my SCT X4 programmer tonight, does anyone keep it connected to the DLC port all the time? im just wondering if it will drain the battery Quick.

Thanx.

These tuners draw so little voltage that there's no need to worry. I leave my x4 plugged in and it automatically shuts down after a while of the truck being off.

Just ordered mine.

Why would one leave it plugged in?

As mentioned the device will automatically shut down after a period of time. Make sure you have that feature turned on in Settings. I think its called Power Management or Power Saving.
