Re: Battery Life

What motorius said...

I have 3 email accounts, one is an exchange account that used to suck my battery dry on heavy email traffic days.

I now have activesync setup to only update every 15 minutes during peak hours and I have it set to manually update after peak hours. I also no longer download attachments automatically and I limit the email size to 20k... although this sounds restrictive I haven't noticed that it has limited the usability for me. It has given me consistent battery life. I run NFS's rom and I pull the phone off the charger at 6am and put it back on at 10pm... I'm usually at 40% battery (although I'll admit I'm not a heavy user).

I did try out energyrom, I was typically down to 20% or less battery by the end of the day... nice looking ROM though.
