So first time using our new V2L cable on the campsite last night and awoke to a flat 12v battery.
It seems that with the V2L cable attached there is some form of drain on the 12v battery although I cannot work out what or why?!
The process we followed was:
Vehicle is a facelift ZS EV Trophy long range registered at the end of May.
Overnight we consumed about 1kwh of mains power (HV battery dropped by 1%) but 12v battery was reading 5.5v this morning.
AA had to be called as we had no way of jump starting but they did it successfully.
If this is a thing then it makes the V2L useless. Any ideas on why it would touch the 12v and how to stop it?

The process we followed was:
- car on, discharge screen set to 40% minimum and start discharging
- car off and locked
