Question: which battery the infotainment/radio uses? (lemmy.ca)

The sites I tried fell into a 50/50 between the main battery and the 12V. Can I go to a Drive-In theatre and keep my radio on for 2h? Thanks.

The radio runs off 12V, not the high voltage battery. But while the car is on, the high voltage battery charges the 12V battery. So just leave the car on and you will be fine.

Some ev's also have a camping mode specifically for scenarios like this. But in general as long as you leave the car "on" you're good to go.
