I'm working on an app that uses the geolocation API. I'm wondering if there has been any research on just how much the GPS receiver affects battery life. I'm wondering how much I need to worry about it draining the battery.

Rougly 15% of battery per hour. Both for devices with built in GPS or not. Haven't tested this yet with versa3 and sense.
No built in GPS means a lot of bluetooth connections. And built in GPS is ofcourse using power

Any idea if the maximumAge interval matters? I'm wondering if trying to retrieve a position every 30 seconds compared to every 5 seconds would make a difference.
