I left one phone connected via the 12 V and one via the USB over night. This morning one was dead.It appears that all my USB ports go offline when the vehicle is off. Only my 12v sockets stays live.

Well, one way to get to the bottom of this is to create a poll.I started this thread, and now I have no idea if the rear 12V plug in the currently in production Model X cars are "always on" or not. Based on the conflicting reports it seems that just going to my local Showroom and testing that plug won't provide a definitive answer.
It does seem very unlikely that the P cars differ from the non-P cars in regards to the capability in question. That would make no sense to me.
And this thread is speciallly about the Model X. Do you own one?It appears that all my USB ports go offline when the vehicle is off. Only my 12v sockets stays live.
Could it be that Power Saving settings differ in all these tests? I will try mine and report back. I wonder if my 5 seater even has the same trunk port as the 6/7 seaters.
Yup, I own a Model-X. Check out my signature below or my avatar on the left.And this thread is speciallly about the Model X. Do you own one?
I performed the 12v supply hack on my early Signature S a few years ago and planned to do it on my new Model S.
Unfortunately the new Model S (April delivery) has a totally different fuse box that looks nothing like that picture so no go on that hack.
I don't know when they switched and what the X version looks like, but if anyone has any update on that hack for the newer models I would love to see it.
Ahh, good point. I have mine set on power save mode. Maybe I will test the socket again with it turned off. Maybe that will make a difference...
Here is the new fuse box diagram for the 2016+ facelift model S ... hope this helps.

Reporting back, I turned power save mode off and the outlets still turn off. This was prior to the 17.17.4 update though. I just received my 17.17.4 update on Sunday, May 14 and did not try the power socket again. I may have to do that again now that it is on a different version.
This model? Dometic CF-025DC | Dometic - Mobile living made easy.I want to carry a small compressor based refrigerator with me on a trip we will be taking this summer. I have the refrigerator (Dometic CF25) and have run it in the X
I have one of their units and used it to keep food frozen on our three day Northern Migration. We just take it in the motel when we get there and run it on AC. I found no way to keep power on in the car when I stopped for a break, but the freezer kept everything frozen and the temperature didn't appreciably increase when we stopped.Looked at the technical details on their website. All the "energy consumption" numbers they give for all their other refrigerators are in kWh/annum. So per year instead of per day. And that makes a lot more sense. I wonder how long the unit can keep a set temperature plus/minus a couple of degrees with no power on. Can you leave it overnight in the car when the 12V system is off and keep everything frozen?
