mysterious drain on batteries



Since I put an Emeter in my truck, I've been noticing that it accumulates 
negative Kwh's even when the truck is off. I've checked around, and the only 
items connected to the battery pack when it is off are the voltage prescaler 
for the Emeter and the output from the battery charger. After sitting about 
24 hours it seems to "collect" about -1 Kwh's. Does the voltage prescaler 
draw current like this, or do I have some kind of "leak" coming from the 
battery charger or ????
Any ideas?
Thanks
-Nick
