Well, battery runtime is different for everybody, since it varies with signal quality, screen brightness, power CPL settings, processor/RAM usage, etc...

BUT

I ran an informal test on my TP with the stock Sprint ROM and a new battery (1st full charge) in a good coverage area by having TCPMP stream a radio station (using stock wired headset) and even though I was in/out of buildings that had 0/1 bars of coverage for short periods (mostly outdoors), the battery lasted for 4.25 hours of continuous streaming with the screen off 95% of the time.

I doubt the Mogul could have managed this.

I've upgraded to a more efficient Radio ROM (in my opinion) and my battery has had a chance to cycle a few times, so the next time I should get more runtime.

My best advice would be to carry an extra battery. Some Sprint repair stores will give one to you for free if you ask nicely since they don't return them with defective phones.
