I am going to be using this trackball/LED notification substitute for a few days to see if it eats battery or FCs: http://www.devasque.com/noled/

I've been using this for the last 24hrs without any issues whatsoever.

If there's any battery drain, it's very slight. When displaying black or dark colors, the SAMOLED display consumes next to no power. So when the notification is recieved, the only battery loss would be from the little icon/dot/whatevs moving around.

Do your capacitive buttons stay lit up while using this app? Mine seem to on while the dots are displayed?

yes..capacitive buttons stay lit while notification is pending. but no capacitive buttons stay lit otherwise when noled is active/standby and no notifications are pending.

( i don't miss n1 trackball anymore )

battery drain is nonexistant imho. i didnt even know how much i needed a notification system until after i installed this, and its is perfect, and customizable enough for me.

with this installed on both my vibrant and my ns, the time since last unplugged were 22+ hrs and 31+ hours, respectively.
That is with noLED not sleeping and notification time outs of 3 hours. when there is a notification i have vibrate turned on for 3 short "dashes" every 1 minute until i dismiss.
