In searching the various forums, I read that when you do a wipe to a new ROM the battery memory is wiped as well and you need to recondition (recalibrate is the word they used) the battery. When I first installed Fresh's new 2.2 ROM I was disappointed...but I decided to charge overnight (phone off), use off the charger all day until battery fully drained and then repeat. Try to avoid putting on the charger until it is about to go dead...after a few days of this you should see maximum battery life. Right now I'm at 89% after 2h 11m...and I've been playing Wordfeud with a friend all morning...and I've had a 30 minute phone conversation. I don't use a task killer anymore and I have Android Mate where I go in periodically and stop the running processes.
Remember: if you are using the phone nonstop for videos, internet, games, etc that will eat battery life regardless of phone. If for regular use, you should get 12hrs+ daily out of the battery.
