I've been thinking about the USB port. As we all know, despite the label, the USB port is powered with the key on only.
The USB get its power through the F15 fuse in the Power Dist Panel under the hood. I'm thinking you could unplug the existing fuse, use a "add a circuit" fuse device, and wire the "add a circuit" device to a wire that's hot all the time. The current fuse is a 7.5 amp fuse.
This would result in the USB being powered by two sources when the key is on, one from the original, and one constant through the "add a circuit" fuse.
Would this be a problem?
