Default Okay to leave power in Switchglowpro ?

Hey sorry I couldn't find this when I searched. I only have so many open ports available so is it okay to leave a hard connection to the 2s rx pack powering the Switchglowpro. I haven't taken the time to do a voltage test to see if it's bleeding away slowly or if it's basically nothing going on in there just waiting for a trigger.

Thx

I'd assume it draws a small amount of power when not active to listen for the trigger, so you'd want to unplug the battery when you weren't flying (assuming you have a switch for the rest of the electronics).

Are you using the channel functionality with the switch glo or just hitting the button on it? I'd think power would be taken care of if you're using a channel for it.

Wouldn't leave it powered. Just my opinion. Just get a Y split harness. Easy.
