Wanted to bump this up. Has anyone experienced parasitic draw/dead battery from leaving one of those USB Cigarette adapters plugged in while the car is off?

I've had one of the twin USB cigarette adapters plugged-in in the console for years with no problems. The cigarette lighter receptacle is dead when the car is Off, so there's no reason why it should cause any problem or create a parasitic draw.

Thank you. I picked up my car today and just ordered an Anker adapter.

I have a used 2017 IS350. All of a sudden, the usb chargers inside the console are not working. I have pulled the top off of the fusebox inside the car under the steering wheel. It has a ton of amps/fuses listed but it doesn't tell me which ones go to the usb ports/chargers. Any Idea?
