I think that you have to be careful if you try to keep it on whilst it’s still wired to your starter battery. It uses a lot more power than the radios ‘back in the day’.

It is a shame that the expensive on-board radio cannot automatically switch over to the leisure batteries when the engine is turned off.

I went down the same route and bought a Pure Evoke (overpriced) unit. It works OK but it is another thing to carry, store and keep charged
