Also, some bluetooth ODBII dongles will keep your cars computer on even
if they are just plugged in without a phone connected to them.
I generally only use LeafSpy once every few months to get a record of my
state of health, and don't bother to collect driving data.

I have a 2013 Leaf and I found that the 12 volt battery was not keeping a charge if the car sat for more than
a few days. After lots of checking current draw, etc., I discovered that my cell phone that has Leaf Spy Pro
installed was the problem. This is an older phone that no longer has a sim card and is only used for Leaf
Spy, and I had begun leaving this phone in the garage, plugged in to a phone charger, with the phone left
"on" so I wouldn't have a delay in turning the phone on and getting it connected to the car when I
drove the Leaf. But, having the phone "on" and near the car apparently meant that the Leaf's
computer was running and connected to the phone, draining the 12 volt battery in a few days, draining it
enough so that the Leaf wouldn't start. When I stopped leaving the phone "on", I quit having Leaf
12 volt battery problems, and this same 12 volt battery is working fine over a year later.
