my clock is also white....... regardless... the clock has no back lighting so it won't consume a whole lot of power anyway

maybe it's the size of the actual pics in the nocturne theme then

or maybe it still IS your own behaviour rather than the phones

I checked with FMA and it's like this:

with Blue Cristal theme, power consumption is 8mA (in stand by mode)

with Nocturne theme it's 14 mA in stand by mode !!!

Can someone please verify this?

Wow that's almost twice the consumption!! I've got to check this out too...

Ok so I've just tried it out. Both were in the desktop with the backlight on and with the same signal..
with blue crystal consumption was 86mA
with nocturne 85mA

Soo.. it's more or less the same.. Did you checked if the signal was the same?

edit: in standby mode they were both 11mA

Just one rapid comment: properties of the molecules used to make current LCDs are such that the resting state is the one that transmits light. You have to apply an electric field in order to darken a pixel.
If the molecules are not excited, they tend to align themselves on one another and therefore let light pass through. When applying an electric field, the alignment is broken and the light is blocked.
As a consequence, an unpowered LCD is transparent and a fully black screen draws more power. But far less than the power used to lit the backlamp.
