I used to put it in, but found it can screwed up a few things when restoring to 6.5.4, so I don't cook it anymore. I have Sprite backup in there instead. It's not free, but it's a very powerful backup tool. You can always install PimBackup as a cab if it's working for you in 6.5.x -

Regarding battery life, it's the same old thing - Lumos (a backlight manager included in 'Tools') is probably the no. 1 saver, activesync exchange set to 5 or 10 minute intervals instead of as e-mail arrives makes a big difference.
Sounds like your battery charging circuit may need to be reset - run the battery down past 20%, turn off the phone, charge until full with phone off. That should re-calibrate the circuit. It doesn't change anything regarding battery life itself, but it will monitor the battery more accurately (lithium batteries are know to go out of calibration) so you & your phone will know how much you really have. Also, lithium batteries only last @ 1 year, so if you're seeing worse performance and the battery is over 1 year old it's probably time for a new one.
I get really good battery life from v28011-28, single charge will last all day with moderate use and the settings listed above. My battery is 6 months old, I re-calibrated the battery @ 4 months ago.
