I am on the verge of replacing our stock radio with a new Blaupunkt radio. One of the features of the current radio is that it will play even when the van it turned off. I would like to reproduce that functionality with my new radio. The new radio, however has an LED clock that is on whenever the radio has power. This leads to my question: Since my current radio is truly "off" when I turn it off, will my new radio drain my battery if I hook it up for constant power since, because of the clock, it is never really off?
