Thanks for the info. Didnt know if it was my car or the unit causing the power shutdown.
My battery has been tested and is apparently 95% like new, so i don't think that a new batt would improve things much.

Yeah the time thing is great isn't it. I have actually written a program that correctly (re)sets the time by talking to the GPS receiver and getting the time from the satellites. I'm going to give it a proper test tomorrow.

I think this would be a useful feature to add to centrafuse/destinator.
Something like "Synchronize time by using GPS".

It seems like more of a band aid than a solution though.
I'm curious to see what jensemann meant by the whole standby -> hibernation thing.
