Default Phatbox Battery Drain with RNS-D

Anyone else experiencing random battery draining with a US-Spec Phatbox connected to an RNS-D?

My unit skips so it has the clock signal problem that the Eddie Fiola mod (http://4130-products.com/step/Phatbox/) is supposed to fix.

My initial thought is that this same lack of sync is causing the headunit and the phatbox to not communicate the 'shutdown' signal on a fairly random basis. This makes sense since the battery drain is random (when the unit is plugged in).

Anyone else have any datapoints on this one?

Default did the battery drain prior to installling the pbox with RNSD?

it's possible that the RNSD is the problem. Did you turn off the TP function in the RNSD?

Yup. No drain without the Phatbox so the RNSD seems to be solid. TP is disabled.
