Interesting. I guess that's not the case on OSX. Not sure why though.

Slightly off the topic but since iOS 6 or perhaps even 5 screen curtain now
turns off backlighting so will save battery on your iDevices with out having
to set brightness right down. At least that was mentioned in a couple of
podcasts I herd.

While screen curtain will black out the screen, it does not turn off the
backlighting so doing F1 a bunch of times will still save a bunch of battery
life. I do wonder if screen curtain saves power from not running the Graphics
Processing Unit (GPU) since nothing is being put on the screen? Might be some
help but turning of the backlight will help a lot.

Hi List,
Besides dimming my screen, is there anything else I can do to retain better
battery life on my MacBook Pro, and if so how?
