They do consume power. 3.   Turn off unused devices Turn off Wi-Fi or Bluetooth unless you are actively using them. These radio devices consume a lot of battery power and should be turned off.   You can also turn off peripherals that are not being used, such as a high-performance graphic card (though you won't use it for a presentation), one to thr...
