Why would java have an impact on battery performance ? Pretty much all credit cards run java for their encryption algorithms, and they need pretty much no power to run.
The JVM isn't free. It was a simple data collection device that interfaces with a sensor which ideally doesn't need maintenance as long as possible. Something light written in C is more than enough.
There are orders of magnitude in what is considered low current. I've worked on a product that was guaranteed 2 years of lifetime for 3 AA batteries.
