Battery consumption DOUBLED using any speed adjustment. It is not worth it unless you have a usb cable plugged in 24/7. (and you want a portable egg cooker)
I've uninstalled all hackery on the processor and my battery life has doubled. I am back to two days between "having to charge" on normal use. before using all the applied tricks (and I tried them *ALL*) I would go one day and have to charge each night or face a dead phone.
I haven't had to face a dead phone in a while and I don't miss it -- even though when I opened up the flip to text someone it would never miss a character. I am fine waiting that extra second before I start typing to save my battery life - and overall the life of the phone.

Copy, in spite of your feedback - I believe you confirmed that when NOT actively using the phone with XCPUScalar, battery loss is identical to stock? You did the multimeter test, then fumbled the explanation when you posted (I believe).
If this is correct, you trade battery life vs. overclocking efficiency when you compare XCPU to Pocket Hack Master.
Again, I've used XCPU for the last year and a half, at 624 100% of the time - and I at most have to charge every 2 days with a 2600 mah extended battery. This does wonders for portable gaming, and any videos I have loaded.
