I'm not sure, but if it's similar to mobile phones then that's not the case. My current HTC EVO lasts about 30% longer with BT turned off. With previous phones, I could get a good 20-30% more charge. Of course, all of these are smartphones which in itself already sucks power faster than Dracula on a hemophiliac.
