Backlight Battery Usage!
Well I got bored, so I decided to see how much of a difference in the battery usage the backlight made at different settings. And this is what I came up with.


All Radios Off

Full Backlight - 71 mA
Lowest Backlight - 43 mA
Backlight Off - 22 mA


So it seems that the backlight does make a noticeable difference in the amount of battery used at one time. These tests were done using acbPowerMeter with all radios off.
