Guy90:
Thanks for the advice! Installing tomorrow direct to battery.

I always use the squelch right up when laning or on play sites. So there's little chance of anything holding the squelch open and making it use more power.
If you left it on for a few weeks it might bother it.

Via a fuse of course :-)

Safety first.....
To protect the cable.

My dad has a Fire Brigade radio fitted to his works car (Cheshire Fire Brigade) which is direct to the battery on a 20a fuse. It’s on a switch but more often than not it’s left on fore several days when he's off.
The feed powers the radio head unit and the big receiving pack in the boot which doesn’t seem to drain the battery, and that’s on a busy channel. So I wouldn’t have thought a CB radio would affect the battery too much if left on overnight.
