Refer to this: 12V Outlet Always On since 2019.5.15 Update?

Has anyone else noticed this? Before 2019.5.15, the 12V outlet would power down when the car went to sleep. After the introduction of Sentry Mode in 5.15, the 12V outlet was constantly powered (even without Sentry Mode active). Now with 8.5, it looks the 12V outlet has gone back to turning off again when the car sleeps. I wish they would give us the option, but they probably didn't intend for power to be constantly drawn from that outlet.
 
Haven’t tested this but 2019.8.5 with the NoA settings and the other fixes may be the ‘final’ version that should have been the real one. I guess we will go on testing everything for Tesla unless...

Shocked only one version of 2019.12 has been seen or anything in between unless someone shook up the testing program. :D
 
Preparing to install a new V1 gen2 when it arrives, I did a quick experiment with my 2020 Model 3, 2020.48.35.5 at ~30°F in our garage, plugged into a 30A 220V outlet and charged to 85%..

The following times were measured from "wake up", initiated by opening/closing the driver's door, when all items 3 immediately turned on. It could also have been awakened from the Android Tesla App.
Approx. TIME from wake up to turn off, Min:Sec
1. Ceiling lights (front & rear). 1:00
2. 12Volt accessory outlet. 3:20
3. Main Display. 3:40

The 12V accessory outlet does eventually turn off.
