Even soft reset after. Still after that was complete i had just over 50% at around 11:30 AM. I can usually go 2 full days until this point (stock battery).

Yeah, I've noticed that my battery sucks. I'm running OMJs 3.03.04 custom on sprint. I do not use GPS today (never touched it, I believe it is not activated by default now), and I have my pagepool set to 24. I keep my screen brightness set to the second lowest brightness. Kept bluetooth off yesterday. I soft reset after using GPS just in case. I did not use GPS yesterday, unplugged 6:30 am, worked all day and barely talked on the phone (less than 5 min talk time), surfed the web for about 35 min, and my email autochecks once every hour. When I got home at 6pm, I was at about 25%. I did not use my vogue much stock (in fact, I flashed the night I got it) so I don't have much to compare it to, but this seems like really poor battery life for minimal use to me. For those of you that have used either the stock shipped rom for any length of time, or the new "official" release leaked rom, is the battery life significantly better?
And a question for OMJ, any clues as to what is causing the drain? Any settings that can be fiddled with?
Loving the speed and customizations, but being that I am on call overnight a few times a month, I need my phone to last AT LEAST 40 hrs with minimal to average use, which is not going to happen right now.
