Is it true that live wallpapers tend to use a fair amount of battery?

I use them, but I change my wallpaper a lot. I never used them in previous builds of Android, but with JB there "buttery" smooth :)

I have used to live wallpapers since I got my N7 and I can't complain about the battery life. Although I've had the same one I can't comment about any others. Mine is called Mystic Night.

"Vortex Galaxy" looks awesome and the best parts is that it is Free and the App requires no special permissions at all! :)
I haven't noticed any significant battery drain when using it on my N7 but I get alot of lag on my stock Rezound when using it :( I believe the OTA ICS update should fix that though.
