In a panic over key fob woes

[robbyrob]

Thanks for all the great suggestions about disabling the panic button. The leather key fob case arrived today, as did the Faraday pouch. Both are fantastic! The leather case makes it highly unlikely I will accidentally activate the panic button, and the pouch works amazingly well. Here's a thought...my previous vehicle that used a key fob (Ford Cmax) would often get a run-down or dead battery, even though the vehicle did not have extended periods of inactivity. When I would take my vehicle into the Ford dealership for servicing, they would always advise me that my battery was nearly dead and would suggest putting it on a trickle charger. I replaced the battery a few times. Now I am wondering if the proximity of the key fob to the garage would not allow the computer to sleep, since it was constantly making contact. I noticed right away with this key fob in the sleeve that the truck was no longer clicking and making contact as I walked into the garage. Does a constant connection between the key fob and vehicle drain the battery? Sure seems to make sense.
