sorry but I don't need to be available during the night but I asked if turn off or use offline mode. Here you can see my screen about night, it seems more than 4-5%

The 4-5% is in "power saver" mode, if you like me have no power saving steps in place you will be looking more at 10% (for a 1320mAh battery), also the voltage in the battery is not the easiest to understand

Look at this graph then you will see that a 10% drop in battery graph is not necessarily equal to a 10% drop in capacity, thats why i made my battery meter like i did, it simulates the REAL graph quite good.

In batterygraph it goes linear from top to bottom, but as you can see in the graph it is more log than linear

"Off eats less than on" maybe not, but our measurements - hell yea. And, as you posted few pages ago, this is quite popular urban legend (about standby = less battery drain), so i think it may be worth wiki'ing (viking). Sure, maybe not in "power-user" section, but "beginners" seems ok for me.

And sure - i know that i can do it myself, probably Just wanted to know what others thing about it, and eventually discuss it.

// Edit

Maybe it should be integrated into one wiki page about battery @ all? With info about voltage/capacity ratio fr_frost presented here, short info and link to "3000 mAh battery mod" (other info regarding "how to buy less faked n900 battery, or real rocking one" is also there), and near-future "hotswap during heavy load" topic... If there is other battery-regarded info on wiki (i don't remember one now, but I may be wrong), we ca integrate it also.
