Does anyone know in the T6.1 (Ocean, if it makes any difference) if you can now power the radio off the leisure batteries? Does 'camping mode' now enable this somehow?

Thanks
 
I was at the VW dealer spending money on toys and mentioned the radio powering off issue. He contacted VW and was told there's a software update on the way that has a check box that disables this. He said "Then you can flat your battery and you're on your own"! (in German)!
I guess once this update arrives you could then "just" move the radio power to the leisure batteries.
Of course there's no date for the update!
 
It won't make a difference . The radio will still shut down. You would need to alter the radio sleep mode timer or whatever it is. All you would achieve is not draining the start battery. It's not worth bothering with . A blue tooth speaker and Internet works for me all day long
