Dslguy asked: “Anyone with war stories on how either of these apps work in either extending battery life and/or increasing responsiveness would be most appreciated.”

I haven’t run any tests to prove this conclusively, but running SuperDave’s autostep application at 530MHz on the xv6600 seems to me to make the functions/features I use perform better/faster/smoother. However, like jerryyyyy, battery drain is not an issue for me.

That’s good to know and answers a question I asked here:

FTR, I’m using the v3 2400 mAh battery. Also, forgive me if I’m stating the obvious, but SuperDave’s program allows you to vary the fixed speed in increments from 200MHz, 300MHz, 400MHz, and 530MHz. So you can certainly choose to use the higher settings only when necessary for those concerned about battery life.

Best,
