I am using the march 26th 23549 w/ max. Using the battery monitor app, I am showing an average drain on battery power with screen set to 40% after a clean install and only running the provisioning cab of around 175-185 mA. This is definitely more than what I was getting with the march 20th 23549 w/ Cookie, which was below 100 mA with often spikes going higher. Guess I will give this ROM a couple battery cycles to see how it plays out..
Will report back with any bugs found.

1) I cannot get the drain to below 198mA at any time with nothing but the battery app running (auto backlight checked as usual.) This was after I had my phone fully set up (with battery saving mods) but was also the result after re-flashing and only installing the battery apps.
2)I am showing an average drain of over 280mA with nothing running.
I don't know if either the Facebook tab or new Task manager (which seem to be the only additions) have anything to do with this.
I have now flashed back to the March 25th 23549 w/ Cookie and used the same apps to test drain again.
1) Reading drain levels as low as 37mA and consistently below 100mA except for an occasional spike.
2) Averaging 54mA.
If anyone is having better luck with the 26th version, please let us know your results so I can see what I am doing wrong.
**Also, the new Task manager worked well, but I didn't like the fact that you cannot access it while in a program (unless you map it to a hard key) like Arkswitch. You have to open it by clicking a link as you would a normally installed program.**
