Wanting to use USB port for Dash Cam. Powers up fine.

But when switching engine off. Dash Cam does not switch off.

Is the USB power on all the time.

Easy to test, leave a phone on charge, shut your car down, come back in 5 minutes, see if phone still charging... The 12v outlet on my 2005 Mk2 stays on permanently (stupid idea), I eventually installed another outlet controlled by ignition.

My usb stays on for nearly 20 minutes before it switches off. I just leave my dashcam  plugged in all the time and no problems.
