I have a good battery tester that I can check out whats going on….just haven't had time to dig into it yet.

Maybe when you lock it, it goes into some sort of hibernation mode where unlocked, it something stays alert.

I assumed the same that you did…regarding unlocked, it would use more juice.
I find my F11 will not stay 100% asleep when unlocked. Seems it does have some function (all OE) which wakes the car every so often, can hear clicks and other sounds.

Lock it and it goes into sleep mode.

I charge mine while locked, definitely faster top up times using my CTEK MXS 5.0
