Of course, you'd want to disable your dome lights (or go LED) and be careful about anything else that might turn on when you open doors, etc. That will very rapidly drain a supercap.
Actually the dome lights is what made me think of it. Of all things this car does not turn on the dome light when the door opens, but it does have an idiot light to show the door is open if the key is on.
