The top LCD still displays information when the camera is in "standby" (meter not active), and if the meter is inactive this information will not change without inputs. When the camera is switched off, you will just see your remaining amount of available images on the top LCD. You can "wake up" the camera/meter from standby mode with button presses, but not obviously if it's switched off completely. Other than that the two states aren't a whole lot different.
Just make sure custom setting C2 "Standby Timer" (aka: meter timer) isn't set to "no limit". People forget to turn their cameras off all the time, and they will last for weeks in storage without the battery dying. If your camera is dying very quickly while not in use and with the meter inactive, something else is going on.
