    yes, it has a “significant” impact on battery. i don’t know why the other comment claims otherwise.

    it’s worth it for me, so i accept that “impact”.

      For some people it doesn’t, and for others it does. So your mileage may vary. For example, with me, I have seen no significant battery impact, and I’ve been running it this way for several years.
