Sorry, didn't see this before but I know with the Lava hub, you had to open it up and snip one of the connections so that the accessories wouldn't continue to draw power from the tablet once the car was off. There's a video on Workshop 12's blog that shows how to do it (if you're using that device).

How would I go attaching a Y cable to the Brainiac electronics box outputs and what cable should I order?

Thank you,

No clue really, I'm not sure how it's wired inside of the box. You may be able to simply add a male to female USB-A extension to one of the open USB outlets and just plug it directly into the wall how we do, but that's really a question for the guys at Workshop 12... unless you just want to experiment (that's pretty much what I did ).
