I am aware that the android auto/carplay USB port will continue charging items when the car is turned off.

But does anyone know if the android auto/carplay USB port automatically powers off eventually when the car is off? Say if someone left their mobile (or something power thirsty) linked by accident overnight would this just drain the normal (non HV) car battery down and risk a flat battery?

Nb the cigarette lighter does seem to turn off when the car is off (for safety no doubt!)
 
You are quite right Mark. Thanks. Just tested it and after say 1 minute of the car being fully off it does cut the power to the USB. Cheers.
