Thanks for the tip, but I was referring to the battery drain while using the wireless device. Not sure if native wireless Android Auto drains as much battery, but using these 3rd party dongles drains about 15% every 30 mins on my phone, even when not actively using navigation.

Depending on your usage, wired (due to being slow charging, typically) can actually drain the battery faster than it charges.
But since you’re using it tirelessly, you can use a fast charger via your 9v outlet (or other fast charging USB).
It sucks it uses so much power, but you’re probably better off if you need to charge your phone anyway
