how much drain does the magic word have on battery

if i kept magic word on, with handset, and handsfree, roughly how much percentage would i lose after say, a day?

for example, when i first used bluetooth, i kept it on from morning to evening, and it only drained my battery around 5-7% just having it on (not using sman), so does anyone know roughly how much the voice activating features would have?

looks like no one tried that b4, guess it's up to u to try it it and tell us 😉

but don't think it'll drain much as it's originally simmiler to voice dialing (I guess🙄 )
and I use that with my bluetooth headset (bluetooth is always on), and the phone works 3-4 days till it drops!

i had it turned on , on saturday morning on the way to work, by the time i was at work, the battery was at 76%, i'll do a test later this week yeah
