>> Some head units suck power even with it turned off. I found that taking the face plate off mine reduced current draw form something like 80-100 mA to around 25 mA. It is crazy I know, for the buggers to suck power like that, but so it goes. <<

   That's how mine is- EXCEPT:

   Damn Dual was still a power suck even with the face plate removed,
so I put a switch into the main power lead and left the memory lead on
its always hot supply line.  Problem resolved.
