Freeza, the less power intensive systems is the Window device lock and S2U2 is the most complete solution. I tried the other two you mention but really did not fit my routine or needs.

However the reason I did the testing on S2U2 is I was surprised that an application could drain the battery that much

That's odd because I never have such a problem. Every now and then you just get a dud. I came from the original pro and must say that the difference between the batteries of the two are notable. I had an extended life battery for the first one and my pro 2's battery does about the same. Hate that you're having trouble.

Once the "battery low" warning comes on, how long should it take to recharge the battery fully when connected to wall power? It takes around 2 hours for me...does that seems quick? I am one of the people that does not get the same battery life many of you claim...could it be my battery is not calibrated correctly? Is there a way to "recalibrate"?

Yes, Yes, a thousand times yes.

It's a shame because I really like S2U2. A great program, but I just can't run it on my phone. And I did ALL the battery tweaks. No weather updates, no agenda updates, no information at all, just the straight slide unlock.

Seems to be killing my battery as well. Got a replacement one, still no dice. I only get about 14 hours of life with moderate browsing, exchange email and gmail updating every 5 min.

i am guessing there is a hardware fault...

You think? I have tried a replacement battery and no luck. I hear all these stories of people's TP2's lasting all day under very heavy use, and I can never make it more than 16 hrs under moderate use without the phone turning off.

Are you using S2u2 mj? I did some browsing, watched you tube videos, listened to MP3s for a couple of hours and did a good amount of texting from about 12 - 10 yesterday and ended with like 65% of my battery or so left.

I have very good battery life and this is constant mp3 and text use, synced with exchange set as items arrive, bluetooth, and no battery tweaks. I just got it two days ago though. I fully charged it before I activated and let it die completely before the next charge.
