Best way to set multiple prefs (e.g. wifi, sound, brightness)?

[pcguys]

Is there an easy way (other than tectiles) to change multiple preferences with either single button press, or to file automatically (like 11pm for bedtime)??? e.g. sound=off, notification LED=off, wifi=on, etc)

I was using Locale on my old EVO, and I did set it up on my S3 (and even found a locale plug-in to suppress the blinking notification LED), but I didn't know if that shortens battery life. (I didn't experiment yet to determine battery effects).

Though it would be great if there was an automatic way to set these prefs without harming battery life, I'm not opposed to pressing one icon and having a bunch of settings change. However, I really hate having to change 5 settings when going to bed.

On a related note, is anyone using Locale? How is it on battery?

Is there a better Locale type app that everyone is now using?
Thanks,

Mike

I am using Profile Scheduler + with great results. It lets you either select from several preset profiles or you can create custom profiles easily. I came from Blackberry so this app is really handy to me to be able to change multiple settings with just one press.
