We were going to put shut offs on our batteries but that got nixed today because to do mass video downloads with wifi that once the buses come back into the garages the shut off timer on the angeltrax has to be set for 1hr. So we have cradlepoint wifi angletrax video and synovia gps tracking all pulling a negative amp draw. We hooked up a amp probe and checked the draw and just the synovia is pulling -.5amp draw and we checked on 3 diff buses and there all the same which kills our Chevy vans with just one battery over a 4 day weekend. Anyone run into this or running similar set ups. Thanks

could't you just wire it into a ignition power source then it will shut off with ignition after their runs, we only have about a dozen with video an thats how we configured it, and our GPS tracking is done through the two ways which are hooked to ignition power also
