In the end, for the last two months I took the unit out of my system and now it is a lot more silent. I can not have same sound everyday which is bad but the noise is really lower and this has become my preference. I wish the unit performed as if it disconnected from the mains all the time.

It is interesting as it is not my observation. In practical sense I do not see any big difference between PP connected or disconnected from mains. There are “some” but it is certainly not at the “noise” level. Are you talking about any auditable noise or rather about the foggy lost of expressivity at lower levels that we frequently call in audio “noise”? Do you acknowledge this noise when music is not playing? If yeas then you most likely have a faulty PP or something is leaking in your grounds. If the later then I might help you to debug it.

I even thought about adding lots of batteries and listen through battery only. I can add 8 more batteries on top of 4 in my battery pack (each battery pack has 4 batteries) and my charger in the regen can still take care of it. It would mean about an hour of listening to music which is not so long as I listen to at least 2 hours and generally longer... 
I would not do it. If you are wiling to invest more space and money into more batteries then get rig AC part from your amplification and go fully disconnected DC power.
