I am not certain but I think OI actually uses more power than the original firmware, perhaps because the longer boot time, though. I noticed too that leaving it always on it actually consumes less power than off/on once or twice a day. Last December to January I left mine on for more than a month, without read any, and the battery was still good to go. That was with the ogiginal (lbook) firmware.
