well its probably not always the screen that has the issue but the audio.
My friend that uses his laptop all the time says if he turns off his
audio soundcards, and everything he does not use ie wireless orj ust
leaves his wireless and screen on and nothing else that battery runs ok.
Unfortunately for us unless we have something external that powers
off its own powersource then we are stuck.
and everything on a usb unless its got its own source powers of the unit.

but I've often wished for a way of turning off the laptop display in
hopes of preserving battery power.
The laptop screen is too small for me to want to try and use for
anything visual like playing graphical games or watching dvds, and
certainly for all the standard windows things it's not necessary,
yet it's taking up my battery life which is irritating.
Beware the Grue!

Hi Thomas,
I once set my background and character color to the same setting
thus when typing a sighted person could not see the text, but the
speech synthesizer recognized it and spoke it.

Hi Philip,
I'm interested in how to disable the display myself. My understanding
was you could put it to sleep, but not outright disable it via the
Windows API. If it is possible I'd be interested in this project
myself.

Hi Yohandy,
This can be done through the Windows API. I am always available for small
projects like this for hire, so please write me off list if you are
interested.
Kind regards,
Philip Bennefall
