Hi,
I have noticed strange behaviour from my 825 regarding battery drain when left disconnected in the glovebox.
If I forget to clear a route, disconnect it and then shove it in the glovebox, nine times out of ten when I next come to use it (usually overnight but could be only a few hours later), the battery will be so flat the only way to get it going is via a reset (holding power switch). The unit is definately turning off, as I thought that I may have been touching the screen during the 10 second shutdown when putting it in its case and cancelling the shutdown, but I have watched and it counts down and the screen goes off. If I clear the route before putting it away it's fine - there's obviously some additional power drain staying active when shutdown with a route in progress. Bluetooth is unused and disabled.

Anybody experienced anything similar?
