Depends on the extensions you have, but generally not very much.

Add-ons/Extensions are the same. You have some stock ones, the drain on them is minimal.
The weather updates each hour I think, the others are pretty much just informative (count of SMS/email, next alarm etc) so they take almost nothing.

Battery Monitor Widget Pro !
I use BatteryLife.
I like BattStatt, its really nice!
Its Pro version was recently released for free in market, and is much more customisable.
I'm using Smart Batter Monitor.
It's not a widget, but I'm very fond of Circular Battery Indicator

I've used this for a long time now - like it a lot
I used Vizbattery. ( no connection to the comic lol)
Simple, elegant and not very obtrusive
ive been using the make your clock widget with battery for a while now
i use clarus battery
can i say none?
well not if you are running gingerbread........
I brought juice defender ultimate and i like to think it made a bit of a
difference when running froyo.
Since i began running cyanogenmod i cant see any improvement what so ever-
I believe it may just be the way i personally use my phone;
I am constantly on my phone all day flicking it on and then locking it.
I think it may use alot of power creating a data connection(handshakes with server)
than what it would be if it was just left running in the background.
Bluetooth is never switched on, Gps on all the time,
I get 2 days usage typical/ I see roughly a 8- 10% drop per hour when listening to music on my headphones
If you dont use your phone alot you may see more of a difference.
Only my personal experience
Battery Monitor Widget Pro indeed.
use PowerTime as it tells you aproximately how long your battery will last you. It is also very customizable as a widget and it tells you how long your battery will last you according to your overall battery usage stats.

I have wanted to use that myself but have not figured out for wildfire. Did the desire files work or did you have to recompile for the wildfire?
Do you also know if you can flash this over an existing theme you're using?
About the battery app. Don't use any widget, every widget consumes battery life. I just use the option in cyanogenmod that has a little color bar and the percentage number next to it... And the circulars posted above make it even cooler.
hey according to me ,,u download "android system" from market...it wil show u batteru...even details of rom n al......
i think the best way is http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/
it just makes battery with percents in status bar... without any widgets
earlier, without root the phone i used Fbreader it can show also battery with percents... any other ways just decrease battery charge

I like Battery Monitor Widget. Great charts and other info inside the app, a bunch of widgets that are configurable (including having %/hour in the widget), and as a bonus (for me) it supports multiple batteries.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ch_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNjYzcxLmJtdyJd
If it works for you, buy the Pro version (no extra features that I'm aware of, but supports the developer).

More specifically, are you asking if you can see the % drain per hour in the Widget graph, or in the graph within the app?
It doesn't matter, the answer is 'yes' to both.
Within the app, just touch the graph and it will toggle between 3-4 items, %/hr is one of them.
For the widget, place one of the graph widgets on your desktop, e.g., the 4x1 widget. Then go into the app, go to Settings -> Widget Content-> Graphic Data and choose %/hr.

I run Concept and I do not see Battery Care in my settings. Also, Stamina mode is not included in Concept, so maybe BC only works with Stamina? I haven't any indication it is doing anything after 5 days...
Nope. Stock Nougat on F5122.

IIRC, yes. I guess having the app installed and then update will give you that feature.

Today I connected my phone to a charger and I received a message that Battery Care starts to control the charging process! Not sure if this is because I rebooted or because it takes a week or so to recognize my typical charging patterns.
Hey...
How is the battery life on Xperia x???
What's the best screen on time we can get!??
M sure the battery life will be better than Xperia z5....

it depends on your usage. i've got something like 5h 30min(max) of sot, but at least 4h 30min using mobile data only, 3h30 of sot and 3h30min of calling. but i don't play games
I am pretty satisfied with the settings I made. As you can see on my screenshot, I am now running since 07:00 AM yesterday and got 36% left. I used it relatively normal, no gaming or continuously usage for about an hour or so.
What I did was install xposed, greenify and amplify. I activated stamina mode and changed the CPU governor settings to on-demand. Also I forced gpu rendering. No lags or slowdowns at all.

Hi, can you confirm the following? Before updating to nougat you installed the battery care apk (not as a system app) and after the update you found Battery Care App on Nougat? Thank you
I think that Battery Care can run only on devices with USB type C port..

Yes, i sideloaded the APK and then updated to Nougat.
And i don't think the app has any relevance to USB-C at all.
