Yup. About 50 milliamps or, 0.05 amps, as long as the LEDs and screens are not lit. If they are, it's a symptom of a low battery and, you are pulling MUCH more power out of it.

There's other posts on this in this forum about this. Look through them!

So it's not a good idea to leave it plugged in overnight then?
I've looked for this subject on the forum can't find the info.

Overnight is cool. A few weeks, not so much.

From what a few folks have tested, the truck itself already draws about 50mA through the various systems. The Evo/Gryphon will also draw about 50mA, for a grand total of 100mA. This would ideally take about 21 days to drain an average battery enough to not start. Even a week or two of sitting should be fine. Just don't take a month-long cruise around the world.

Take care.
