The Most Life of laptop Battery was sucked by The Web Browser

Bet you didn’t realize that upon making the choice of which web browser to use, you’re also making a decision that will greatly affect the battery life of your laptop. It’s true though, and you might be surprised just how much of an impact said browser selection will make on the amount of time you have to be online.
The tech analysis web site AnandTech ran a “browser face-off” to see which browser, among those tested, fared better in the battery preservation department. To do this, three websites were continually loaded on three laptops(a Gateway NV52 and NV58, and an ASUS Eee PC 1005HA), with each computer having their battery tested while running Safari (version 4.0.3), Chrome (version 2.0.172.43), Firefox (version 3.5.2), Internet Explorer (version 8.0.6001.18813), and Opera (versions 9.6.4 and 10 Beta 3) browsers.
With up to a 30% difference in battery life dependant on your choice of web browser, you may want to think twice about who you want to run all of your online activities through. It’s a choice that could end up being the determining factor on whether or not you’ll have those precious minutes of internet time right when you need it most.
Overall, Internet Explorer and Firefox + AdBlock consistently place near the top, with Chrome following closely behind. Opera 10 Beta 3 didn’t do as well as Opera 9.6.4, and in a couple quick tests, it doesn’t appear that the final release of Opera 10 changes the situation at all. Opera in general — version 9 or 10 — looks like it doesn’t do as well as the other major browsers. Safari is at the back, by a large margin, on all three test notebooks. We suspect that Safari 4 does better under OS X, however, so the poor Windows result probably won’t matter to most Safari users.
