Front Axle Lift (FAL) Question

Front Axle Lift (FAL) Question
Hi! Quick question about FAL. I have a driveway from hell, and often times i will move the car back and forth multiple times a day.
If i do not use FAL, my front end will scrape due to it being lowered. So no choice here.
My question is, Can i leave the FAL activated hours/overnight while parked in my driveway without hurting the system? Or must I lift and lower immediately after i'm done?
The reason why i'm asking is that I was told by the dealer that the rear wing and front spoiler cannot be left activated as this will constantly use battery power to keep it
activated. Wonder is that's the same type of concept here. Makes sense but I'm not so sure.
So gurus, can you step in and answer? Thanks in advance.

Since I bought the car about two years ago, I've had the spoilers extended about 100% of the time including when parked in the garage. I like the looks of the spoilers when extended. No problems.

@CodyzWorld , ... sorry, I guess I had a senior moment. I was thinking you were talking about the spoilers. I haven't used my FAL very much and I've always retracted the lift after I needed it. Sorry about the misunderstanding.
