v710 blue tooth ?

I have a ? about the blue tooth setup on the v710. Here is my question I have my phone setup so that when I get in the car and plug it in and turn on the car it automatically recognizes the phone. When I shut off the car and check the phone the bluetooth connection is off. My question is the battery wearing down faster this way. Or once the bluetooth is off that phone is not searching anymore. Thanks for the help

If I am not mistaken it is always searching... there was one moto...the v551 (for att/cing) that stopped searching...

BT is quite a drain on my V551 so set a phone shortcut to turn the BT power on and off. Once turned on it will auto connect to the HFL.

Here's a post I copied for shortcuts to turn bluetooth off and on, I forgot which post I took it from. Yes, BT does drain the battery faster and best to keep it plugged in with car power adapter.
Actually, you can make it even better than that (thanks for the head start, though):

1. Menu
2. 7 - Setup
3. * - Connection
4. 1 - Bluetooth Link
5. Setup (Select)
6. Power (Change)
7. Scroll down to "Off"
8. Hold then Menu button down and create a shortcut...I used "1"

Follow the same steps as above (1 through 6) and then:

7. Scroll down to "On"
8 Hold the Menu button down and create a shortcut...I used "2"

Henceforth, "OK" + 1 turns Bluetooth off in a single step
"OK" + 2 turns Bluetooth on in a single step
