I am sure there is no parasitic drain. I installed the Antigravity battery monitor to track what is going on with the 12v. It drops overnight because, it never gets recharged by the DC to DC converter when my wife drives to her work and back home. I am under the impression with my 2013, it will never get charged unless the battery sensor of the Leaf sees the battery below 12v. The Antigravity monitor confirms this when it shows the odd spike into the 14.x volt range, but this only happens once every 2-3 days, sometimes the entire week. And this just kills the 12v on my Leaf.
The only sure fire way of getting the 12v charged that I know of so far besides the windshield wiper trick is to plug in the Level 1/2 charger. Yes I know I can connect a trickle charger to the 12v, but that's a nuisance to have to drag 30ft long extension cable to the curb where she parks her car.
