    Default MyWi Battery Usage with Tethering Switched On but Not In Use

    Did a search but couldn't find much info on this. The title sums it up - haven't noticed any issues, but I'm wondering if I should turn off the tethering button when not in use. It's convenient to just plug it in and wait for the beep without actually having to open the app. I'm just wondering how much this would affect the battery life. Thanks.

    I don't notice a difference of whether its enabled or not, only when I'm actually using it. I wouldn't worry about it.

    USB and Bluetooth = 0 battery difference. WiFi Tethering enabled whether in use or not will increase battery usage.
