Dumb Question re: True Bypass Pedals

As long as the unit is turned off, can one leave it plugged in without battery drain (unlike say, a regular Boss pedal)?

 

I have always wonderd about this, and just got a Keeley Java Boost and thought it might be time to know the answer!

 

Thanks

In general (There may be exceptions), I think tha answer is no. The battery will still be powering the circuit in a ready/standby mode. The drain willl depend on what you're powering. Most times, the battery is "connected/active" when the instrument is plugged into the input jack.
