Electric Choke Issues '69 C10

Hey gents,

I recently rebuilt my original 1969 Rochester 2 barrel and had to upgrade the divorced choke to an electric choke. Got everything from Mikes Carb's, installed and tuned. Everything seems to work fine except now my battery drains every couple of days. I ran the power source through my firewall and back to the fuse panel and plugged it into the IGN UNFUSED port. I have always thought that those two connectors were 'Key On' so it shouldnt provide power unless the key was in the on position. Am I missing something here?

Prior to the electric choke, everything was working fine and i did not have any battery draining issues. Also, would leaving the key in the ignition in the 'off' position cause it to pull power? Appreciate any help.
