I'm testing right now to see if VBAR is draining my battery, even with the power meter disabled....

i think since i've installed vbar, leaving my x51v in standby overnight the battery is drained.. forgot how much.. but before vbar, leaving it in standby overnight caused no battery drain..

another consideration as to why it's specific to the notes program.. are you using transcriber? that takes quite a bit of processing power.. if you're on auto it probably jumps it up to max performance... If you haven't done so already, you should configure transcriber to your writing style so it spends less time recognizing

that's all i can think of.. vbar sucking the life out of the battery (testing this on mine right now) or transcriber kicking your cpu into overdrive..
