kind of sad that I can't get more since my garminfone with smaller battery lasts around 8-10 hours.

but I'm still happy since I think running it from sd card drains battery more than if it was installed as I've seen people mention the nand version lasts longer (not sure if this is correct though) but im not installing a permanant OS until the bugs are mostly out of it

NAND actually has a much shorter battery life in my experience.

When on WisTilt2's .39 kernels, I was getting ~0.5% drain per hour in sleep. Pretty damned good...

.27 isn't nearly as nice on the battery.

I'm sure you're not doing the same things on your 'garminfone' as you are on your RHOD. I also assume your garminfone's battery is quite a bit newer .

The problem with the "what kind of battery life are you seeing" questions is every single users experience is going to be different - everyone uses their phone differently. Some don't make many calls, some make a ton. Others don't use wifi... and some do. Some people might let their phone sleep most of the day. Some will download a ton of apps and always be on the phone browsing, gaming, etc.

So the 'what kind of battery are you guys seeing' is silly... Try it for yourself! No one except you will be able to accurately answer that question for you.
