Sensors & Accessories - 'Searching' vs. 'Off'

I was looking at the numerous accessories I have listed in the Sensors & Accessories menu (a couple of different HR monitors, speed and cadence sensors for the bike, two sets of headphones) and I noticed that most of them say 'Searching'. If you click on the device itself in the menu there's an option to turn the status from 'Searching' to 'Off' - is there any reason not to leave it in searching mode all the time? Is it constantly and actively searching for any sensors I might suddenly turn on? If so, does this have an effect on the battery drain?
