  Boot power when engine/power is off

  I thought the power socket in the boot might be powered all the time. Seems not though. Shame for cool boxes. Unless I’m mistaken ?

  It wasnt on the D4 so wouldnt have thought it would be on the D5 either as you could be running something that could flatten the battery

  They are only on during ‘convenience mode’. I think that is activated when you unlock the car or open a door - user systems are powered for a short time- accessory sockets, electric seats etc.
  
  As already pointed out it doesn’t stay on permanently due to the risk of leaving something plugged in and the battery being flattened. Cool boxes can be quite power hungry too!
