No it will actually drain faster. I have done it with every electronic there is.
Why does your battery drain on your 1976 Cadillac Seville?
Either the battery has a dead cell and needs replacing or something is pulling power from the battery when the engine is off. I had a problem with my 1986 Cadillac DeVille where the power antenna was stuck and the motor would run all night trying to lower the antenna. To resolve the problem I just removed the fuse for the power antenna motor.
Why would your 2003 jetta's brake booster pump turn on 30 seconds after you turn off the car and drain the battery?

What all can drain your battery?
Almost anything. On newer model vehicles, the engine's computer drains the battery constantly, as does the stereo. Short circuits can cause a drain. Any electrical system that is left on will drain the battery. Even a disconnected battery will lose charge over time and the older the battery, the faster it drains. Also a battery with a dead cell will discharge itself, usually overnight.

What should you do if your car factory car stereo is draining your car battery?
While the car is running the alternator should be recharging the battery faster than stereo can drain it. I suspect you either have a problem with the alternator or its time to get your battery replaced. Until you get it fixed, if you don't turn on the radio, it wont drain your battery :) If it is a high power model, it needs to be wired directly to the battery.
Why does your 1991 Cadillac drain batteries over night?
Either something is stuck on like interior lights or there is a short inside the battery. Have the battery checked Just wanted to add my experience. If no lights are left on, that you can see, then check the light in the glove box. My light stayed on and it took me a month before I figured it out because you can't see it when the door is closed. Instead of fixing the switch I just took out the bulb. In my 1986 Cadillac DeVille I had a problem where my electric antenna was stuck, and the motor would run all night trying to lower the antenna. That would drain the battery. Once I noticed the hum of the antenna motor, I figured it out and removed the fuse for the antenna motor. Still trying to find a replacement part...

Does the hold button drain your iPod's battery?
Actually doing ANYTHING on your ipod touch whether it be listening to music, or pressing some buttons will drain the ipod battery. some things drain less battery then other things, but they all drain battery. (for example, listening to music does not drain as much battery as watching a video.) I do not know any buttons on the ipod touch called the hold button, but if you are talking about the button in the front with a square on it, that does not drain battery. if you keep holding it, a whole lot of options might open, but it does not drain battery. If it DOES drain battery, its so small of a drain that you won't notice it and it won't impact your ipod's performance
