Texting vs. Battery Life. Share your input please

Theres been some discussion in the Mighty ROM thread about the amount of texts per day and battery life.
Its pretty much known that the more texts you have saved, the slower sense will respond..as well as the touch PRO.

I don't think at all this is a Mighty ROM issue as I have had similar experiences on my Touch Pro with various other cooked and stock ROM's.

So, lets discuss how many texts per day you send/recieve and your battery life, which ROM you are on (please include custom ROM, 6.1, 6.5x, etc) and it will also help to know how old your battery is. Also, how does your phone behave after you accumulate a certain number of texts and how many.

Thanks,

David

Edit:
Almost forgot, I'm running Mighty ROM FF 6.5.x
I send and receive about 30 to 40 texts per day and delete them all about twice a week...usually when things start slowing down. My phone is about 2 months old and was brand new when I got it.
I have push email through activesync/exchange to load emails as they are received and have weather updates set for every 12 hours with location services turned on.
I have an airave at home so my reception at home is very good but I work in a large hospital where recetion is marginal (typical for CDMA in a large solid building). I usually do from 1 to 10 calls per day and use data services about an hour total of active use. I rarely use wifi but use BT frequently with my Moto S9-HD headset to listen to music which totals anywhere from one to several hours a day.
My battery life is anywhere from 20 to 36 hours from unplugging to plugging back in (at 20% battery left)
