I have 80% of this list turned on, and I still average on a single charge 1 day and 17 hours of battery life...
The only question I have is on number 12, I use WiFi all the time, but why would I want to keep it on durning sleep? Maybe I'm getting my definition of sleep confused. Do u mean like during the day when the phone is turned off and in my pocket? Would that be considered sleeping? Or during the night when the phone should be sleeping because no use in a certain amount of time?
