A Pazon needs at least 11v. Anything below will lead to bad running or not starting at all. And leaving the ignition key on will drain the battery.

yep and being the owner of a 74 year old memory bank doesn't help at all, future plan is to incorporate a flashing light somewhere in an eye line when it's on.
Apart from that little feature the Pazon gives better starting and better running (purist may disagree)
