Adblocker and battery life

[jmccamb]

I own an iPad two an recently jailbroke it using absinthe. I like to keep the jailbreak as minimal as possible and avoid themes, massive tweaks and process that run in the background. One extension the I admittedly jailbroke for is the adblocker extension available in cydia.


It seems to work perfectly but my question is what ate its effects on battery life? Additionally, does adding Adblock functions to apps other than safari further increase the battery drain? Finally, will using lists such as fanboys annoyances and tracking further impact the battery life?


Thanks for your help.

I have adblocker on my ipad 3 from day 1 when jailbreake was released I didn't notice any differences in battery life,
Also I have it turned on for a few other apps.

I have it for other apps as well and haven't noticed any decrease in battery life.
