Which uses less of the phone's battery power on long trips?
 
Playing long podcasts with the Android speaker as the output?
Playing long podcasts with a Bluetooth speaker as the output instead?
 
Any idea?

 
Speaker wattage is about 3W.
 
Bluetooth uses about 2.5mW.
 
So the speaker uses more than 3000x the power.

 
Do you have a source?

 
Do you to refute?

 
I do not refute nor corroborate, so I would like a source either way :-)

 
Me, too.  I'd like to know the basis for both claims.  Alas, there are
so many variables involve with unknown phones and BT/BLE devices
employed that the results are unpredictable.

A perfect link answering the OP's question pretty clearly has been posted.
Could more data be collected? Always, but I'd say there aren't too many
variables.
