Leave BT on all the time?

[A5Ben]

I'm trying to get the most battery time as possible and assume that turning off the bluetooth is going to help. But. I use the BT a lot.... When I get in the car.. etc.

What does everyone else do? I might have to get EABPlus to make a button to enable the BT when I need it.

I leave mine on all the time but I had to get the Mugen 3000mAh battery to do this. My stock battery drained way to fast with BT on.

mine's fine on all day, it just depends on how much I use the phone, voice/data/a2dp..
I have s9's that're on my head all day. the headset actually turns off after an hour of inactivity, but I have mscv read my txt's so it rarely turns off.
if a baseball game is good, I get lots of txts, and the constant broadcasting can wear on my battery.

I leave bluetooth on all the time, but only have an active-device nearby when I'm in my jeep (which has bluetooth built in). On vs off, I don't see much impact on battery life.

I use AEButton + to turn BT on/off with a dbl press of the red phone button.

I just leave mine on all of the time, there's an increased drain but not huge.

Sat at work today, watched a Futurama movie, 1 hr 22 minutes. Bluetooth paired to my A2DP headset, playing in CorePlayer.

The whole hour and 22 minutes only drained the battery 12%... pretty dang impressive because if I were to browse sites for an hour and a half, I'd have lost a lot more than that.

wow thats a huge battery. Does that cover restrict the field of vision of the camera?

I pretty much leave mine on all of the time and do not notice any difference in battery drain.
