Does 2017 S60/2016 V60 cigarette lighter socket allow charging when car's turned off?
Purchased a solar battery charger like this one: https://tinyurl.com/s8jrgj9 but not sure if it has been charging my S60/V60. Forgot to have read somewhere that while the car's off the sockets are not "live" but it will allow charging (even if it's NOT in "ignition mode I" - which is activated by pushing in the key fob and press the button briefly according to the manual)?
In other words, when it's parked outside, obviously for this solar thing to work, with the doors locked and no way to, or preferably not leaving the car key inside to activate "ignition mode I", will the cig lighter socket take charge?

Right, it's not charging the phone when the key is out. But as I said I read somewhere (I'll try to find it and post it here) on this forum that the socket will allow charger to charge the car battery thru the socket even with the key out...
