I'm not sure if Active Content uses significantly more battery than regular books, but I did spend some time playing a word game as well as reading.

It will be interesting to see how the battery does once all the indexing is finished. Has anyone noticed whether a lot of books on the device discharges the battery quicker in and of itself, or is that simply an indexing issue which will go away after all is indexed?
You're suppose to keep the Kindle plugged in till indexing is done. Otherwise it will take forever and the battery will drain quickly.
