- Have you disconnected the fogs from the battery to try and determine if that is the source of the draw?

I'm shooting in the dark without these answers, but part of best practice for any electrical troubleshooting involves (1) checking the circuit as a whole with a multimeter to try and find a draw that isn't supposed to be on car 'off' mode, and (2) having the battery tested.
I had left it before and it was fine, I installed them myself. I'm going to take It off The battery next time I leave my car for two days. I was planning on doing that but I'm not sure why it would cause it to drain when the switch is connected to aux power inside the car. It shouldn't be draining the battery but I don't know.
