Default Do you save power?

In David's recent Mugen Battery video, he said something to the effect of "no one plays with Power Saving mode on, brightness level 1, 3D off, wireless off, volume down." In fact though, I usually play like this. If anything is on, it's volume. I was just wondering, what are your average settings for your 3DS? I usually play at the bare minimum to conserve battery life.

i don't know how to do such things, so it's the default settings (I know how to turn wireless off and volume down though)

Volume drains the battery?

Where do you think the sound is coming from? Earbuds aren't as bad though.

Go to HOME and then click the top left button. It's a sun. Then, click which brightness you want, and if you want power saving mode on or not.

3D if I'm playing a 3D game, not on otherwise.
One or two brightness.
Power saving off. (The flicking it does bugs me.)

Default Power Saving

I play brightness 3, wireless on only when I need it, powersaving off, and volume full. I have Nyko's PowerPak+ though, so I tend not to worry about battery life.
