power saving available in different stages

2012-02-20 Thread Jerry Vonau
Hi All: I'm wonder if anybody would know what the potential power savings might be while in the stages of dim, blank, and sleep? Thanks for any feedback, Jerry ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

Can you tell us which generation XO you are asking about ? They are all somewhat different. The backlight in all XO laptops draws 1W at full brightness. dim it, and you can save 40% of that. Blank it, and you save the full 1W, plus another 300 mW or so for the DCON and display electronics.
