Drastic decrease in battery life

Battery life has been great for me.

If you want to improve your battery life, get rid of your widgets and turn down the frequency that programs update. I can easily get a full day.

I am at 12h31m since unplugged and I have 51% remaining. I don't think the battery life could get any better.

You must not be talking about the OG droid, or mistyped (we only get battery % in 10s). Unfortunately there are problems that can be very phone specific, and while that is great advice(!), I think this has to do with the phone specifically.

I only use two widgets, one of which never updates unless I use it and I am resigned to the battery use of the other.
