A small quote

"Filtering to show only red pixels only requires 35% of the original baseline OLED panel current, on average. Adding back the baseline current, the best case overall is about 42% of the original system current, effectively doubling the battery life. Also, showing only red pixels doubles as an awesome night vision mode, perfect for astronomy"

Really prefer clear picture and less battery life :angry:

Otherwise, yeah... this is true ....

You know, I think my battery life has been excellent these past few days and I just changed to the Plasma live wallpaper using the Red and Black colors. Black uses no power since it's just off and Red uses so much less....coincidence?

Think it’s pretty useful though as if I’m off camping for the weekend I don’t really care about the full colour experience but more battery life.

Only problem is need to do some mods.

I should of known this already as its common sense, use less lights consume less power. More of an interest article for most than actually useful.
