Hi,
I own a T39m and recently bought a Parrot CK3000 carkit. The carkit works like a charm (I can recommend it to anyone) but the standby-time of my phone dropped from 260 to just 60 hours on a full load. Is this normal? My phone is set to Bluetooth "On". If set to "Automatic" the standby-time improves considerably, but my carkit can't find the phone on an incoming call.

Thanks for your thoughts on this!

IR drains a lot more juice from the battery.

Bluetooth is designed as a low-power consuming connectivity.
