Re: Bluetooth on or off?

The Bluetooth draws about 40mA when it is turned on, if you are using it or
not.
It will put a major drain on the battery when it is turned on.

My BT is mostly on, because of my BT headset, even when I do not use it, I
do not notice a difference in batt drain. It has gone as long as 3 days
before needing a charge, with BT on, but I usually just plop it on my
desktop charger every night.

Same here. I'm in and out of my car all day long. When I'm in the
car, I put my phone on my motorola car charger/speaker.
Phone rarely ever goes below 1/2 charge
