Have you had any de-charging issues caused by the usb, what with the optimate?

Thanks a lot, need to get this sorted. cheers

Thanks
In answer to your earlier question "Have you had any de-charging issues caused by the usb" A USB socket does not draw any current when nothing is plugged in.

A well designed one will draw almost no current when nothing is plugged in; a baaaaad one will draw more. Best to measure the current draw with a multimeter and make your own mind up. If it is more than a few milliamps when it is 'off' I suggest that you either connect it to a switched live or disconnect it from the battery when you are not using it (luckily this is easy as it has an in-line connector).
