Hi,

Has anyone done a compasrison using an ipad with normal use using minimum and maximum brightness and detailing how long each lasts? I would like to know how much battery it uses.
 
I havent found exact specifics, but I can say the iPad will almost be garanteed to reach its 10 Hour battery life at minimum brightness, unless you're like constantly playing games or watching videos, Im talking 10 hours of emails and web browsing.

On Max Brightness, mine only seems to last about 5 hours.

Wow, that much of a change? I use mine at half brightness and almost reaches 10 hours of browsing, I think the battery is fantastic.
