Display uses 60-200ma

[dpham00]

I wanted to see how much power the display uses. During my test, i turned,off mobile data,gps,bt and turned on only the stock music player, which uses about 60ma at idle with the screen off. At auto indoors with overhead lighting, it was around 200ma, lowest setting 120ma, highest setting 260ma. Taking out the 60ma constant, the screen alone used:
Low 60ma
High 200ma
Auto indoors 140ma

Current draw was measured by battery monitor widget and is a rough estimate only.

I was wondering if anyone else has done a similar test, and if so what results they got?

I've estimated my display uses about 100mA, and I have it set to around 30%, so that is consistent with your results.

Yup roughly same results.
