Dimming the screen

[Guest]

I got a qeustion, I know when I'm plugged in the socket the brightness of the
screen doesn't matter. But how about when I'm on battery, if the screen
brightness is dimmer then usual will it conserve the battery at all ? I
noticed when I take off the wall charger/power it'll dim automatically if I
have it dimmed without it plugged in. So say I'm at full bright when plugged
in and 2 shades dimmer when on battery power, will it save the battery. Sorry
for elaberating to much. Thanks for the help. If you could IM me on aim @
JLPerformance I would highly apreciate it. Thanks again, Jeff

Yes.

Your power settings are doing this.

Yes, it should help.
