My thought was that ATK kinda sped up my device after killing apps. It seemed to scroll a bit faster and was more responsive and Juice defender extended my battery from 8 to 9 hours to about 14 to 18 hours. I might just uninstall both of them and see how my phone holds up. If any better or worse. I do have startup auditor installed which I rarely use. I might give auto start a try and see if it has any better features.

you can always go back bro and i also killed some widgets that update all the time, not killed them but there not widgets just open from start menu or whatever droid calls it. lol

I have been using advanced task killer, but have not noticed an increase in battery life.

I tried disabling my task killer for a few days and it seems my battery life was a little worse. I can typically get through a full day without charging though without atk I was needing to charge around 5pm. Maybe a coincidence but I have gone back to using it. I experience no ill consequences from doing so, so I guess I'll just keep with it and juice defender.

Tapa tapa tapa

juice is even worse for me, if your bored kill both and check results. im sure lots has to do with root/rom/kernal but im on custom rom/kernal with no juice or task and i get 19hrs with moderate use.

Okay, so I updated to the DI18, did not install juice or the task killer........AND........My battery life is fabulous!!! I took it off the charger at 8 this morning and its now 10:03 pm and I still have 2 bars (checked from the camera). I took it off the charger and made a few calls. Downloaded some games. Tried them. Uninstalled some of them. Played some other games I have while waiting in line at the zoo. Took pictures of every animal I seen and a few more extras. Made a few more calls, now Im home and am playing some games online and I cant believe I havent gotten the battery low pop up!! I am Very impressed with this. I do not see a need for juice or task killer either. Thanks Darren for the input and help.
