Been doing some testing and here is what I have come up with...
Started with Fresh flash (Feb22 Std) with nothing installed
1) Installed the attached battery monitor (Attached file 01)to check settings
Battery DisChargeCurrent 250-285 mA
ChargeCurrent 450 mA (usb 2.0 lets me know quick charge isn't working - should be 900+ mA)
2) Installed the attached nuebattery2 driver (Attached file 02)and enabled quick charge settings and don't round percentage to re-enable 1% reading and reset
Battery DisChargeCurrent 250-285 mA
ChargeCurrent 922 mA (now it is quick charging)
3) A lot people are supecting that the battery issue is related to bluetooth whether you are using it or not so I installed the SprintStockBTDlls (Attached file 03) file
**This is key -----> Enabled BT first, installed dll's cab, reset, then disabled BT...
It has been found that installing this cab with BT off will prevent BT from working
Original thread from mrmediaguy at Mighty's for reference on this subject:

Battery
DisChargeCurrent 164mA (plugged into activesync via usb 2.0)
Battery DisChargeCurrent 46mA (unplugged)
To me this is a substantial difference in discharge and charging amounts.
I think this warrants more testing.
