Checked the current last night, looks to be 20ma with the backlight off, and 40ma with it on low. The car sat running for just a minute or so and the gauge started resetting again. I had the door open the whole time, and it was snowing while I worked, so ambient temperature ~ 30* and windy... the regulator felt a lil warm, but no way could it be overheating that fast in freezing temps.
