Will staying in a turned off BRZ Limited drain the battery?
Sometimes for my 30min lunch break I'll nap in my car. Would this be draining the battery a little bit if I'm inside the car and it's off? I heard if your fob is 30ft~ from the car they'll sense each other, draining the battery faster.

I don't see why it would, don't all the interior lights turn off after a few minutes?
Lol keep doing this and report back if/when it dies.

Do not lay in the car for two or three weeks straight and you will be OK!
Oh, and your car is always using power to broadcast a signal looking for the fob no matter how close you are.

I enjoy the existence of this post. Highly pleasing.
I imagine he is considering stalking an ex girlfriend in it on a week long stake out. Or maybe bird watching. All appropriate for a car with as much interior space as an Isetta.

You'll be just fine. I did the same thing for about a year, albeit sometimes with car running and A/C on (no I did not nap while the car was running).

Just needs to check out the thread on survival kit just so the OP is comfortable when living in the car.
