I multimeter tests are VERY suprising to say the least.

Few things for those that are interested:
I can't disable the option for PHM to disable CPU scaling, it seems to be locked into the checked position for the version I have. (oh well)

XCpu DOES pull the same mA in "sleepytime" as the stock settings do. PHM DOES NOT!@!@! xCPU drains the battery TWICE as fast as stock with or without scaling enabled.

I can get my PPC so hot with PHM my phone turns into a small heater. I notice running PHM with internet sharing IMPROVES the download speeds by around 25%.

PHM benchmarks blow xCPU's marks out of the water.

So in a semi-final conclusion, the only time to use overclocking so far is when you know you are going to be plugged in, otherwise your battery is toast.

I ran one full day with PHM and one full day with xCPU and the drain rate was very similar. now today it is running at stock so once I get the results, I'll post up the data so you can all make your own decisions.
