Would be nice to have some way to manually control the value without needing to connect the ODB adaptor and use my iPhone which is a pain.

Are there any downsides to leaving the ODB adaptor connected all the time? I notice it's able to draw power through the port when the car is shut down. I wouldn't want to have it draining the battery when the car isn't in use or does the port power down at some point after the car is locked?
I've had it plugged in for weeks (due to laziness) while I'm using the car "normally", no problems noted.
