Seems like a dumb idea...Maybe they smoke more in Germany :-)
I prefer them being constant 12v, and have rewired past/current cars to be the same way...charging my cellphone while at the gym, running a portable cooler in my work truck, etc. If you can't trust your kids to take their things outta the car, then maybe you should quit letting your kids drive your car, period. A firm smack in the back of the head of car priveleges will drive it home, saving you money and killling two birds w/ one stone.
