Mine doesn't have the feature so I speak from no experience.
E-ink displays only use power to change the screen. The number of pixels that change between pages is what affects power usage, not what color the background is.

No one has given any reason for changing to invert mode before putting the Kindle to sleep would save power. I am very skeptical that is true.
