    Well I don't know if it is appropriate to make a new thread but I just discovered when I exited (and shutdown the process of) Thunderbird I dropped 2-6Wh of battery usage, I wonder how many of you constantly run an email client like I do, I won't be doing that any more. Maybe this will help you all, but it just saved me a half hour to hour of battery! Maybe an Optimus issue, I am not sure.
