Should I flash one of the 1.85 CHT in hopes of the battery lasting longer?

It's all about your setup. Besides being a little buggy, I think Cookie 2.0 was draining a little faster. With Cookie 1.8.5 I can get 16 hours of medium-light usage on a single charge (down to about 20%) and that holds true to about what I got with a stock ROM. Things on this ROM that will destroy your battery life are the Facebook tab and contact integration, the Twitter tab and Google Latitude (if you use it). Also the Sense/CHT weather animations. I don't know what the deal with the Twitter tab is/was, but I removed it from Sense and run moTweets in the background with much better performance. I could probably stretch the battery life even further if I didn't use the Google sync, but I'm not giving that up. Lately I've taken the picture and music tabs out of Sense since I'm overclocking now and have seen a negligible reduction in battery life.
