At the risk of asking a dumb question........
If the main fuse is pulled, does that disconnect all possible current drains on the battery? I want to avoid disconnecting the battery for the winter, mostly, so that Ia can leave my charging pigtail connected.

Re: Pulling ZN1300 main fuse.....
I'm pretty sure it does.
Easiest way to find out is to pull it and see if the clock goes out.
Sorry but I am not going to put mine back together to find out.
The only problem with that is if your battery is not fairly new it may not hold a charge until spring, and you need to keep it on a maintainer anyhow.

Re: Pulling ZN1300 main fuse.....
Thanks MA.
I've got an AGM battery in the ZN1300 - I find the AGM will hold their charge over the winter - as long as there's no drain - and the radio/clock is definitely enough of a drain to kill it. In any case, that's why I want to leave the pigtail hooked up.
