Does using 2 SIM cards use more battery?
Yes, running active dual SIM cards does consume more battery power than a single SIM, but this is only a minor drain. So, if you are on a call on one SIM, you can put the call on hold and use another SIM to make a call or use mobile data.
Does turning off SIM save battery?
If you switch to GSM, as opposed to 3G for either, or both, of the cards then that will help reduce the battery drain, and hence extend the life of a single battery charge. As you suggest, turning off the second SIM (if it is not needed) will save power use.
