DC outlets stay on when truck is off.

[Yukongk]

My last vehicle had one outlet that worked ONLY when the vehicle was on, and one that worked whether on or off. My 01 Yuk seems to power all outlets regardless of whether the truck is on or off. I want to keep a boost pack in my cargo area, plugged into the rear DC outlet so it will stay topped off (charged) whenever I use my Yuk. Is there a way to have it turn off when the engine is off? (I don't want to drain my battery, then I'd have to boost it which would be ironic ).

A 12V booster pack shouldn't drain the battery while connected, if the pack is fully charged and the vehicle battery is fully charged there would be no voltage difference therefore no current flow

Makes sense. Guess I can plug it back in now
