Thanks RonDutt. I also found a cab that does the registry edit here:

I have great coverage so don't really need to change the radio and love how my Pro is set up now so don't want to change the rom either (though I'm sure these two things could solve all of my battery life problems). If forcing 1x will improve my battery life - dare I say - my Pro will be "perfect". (Until I find the next great hack/tweak/app/theme)
