Help battery suggestions please?

Hi! I've had my Incredible for over a year and have always had problems with my phone's battery. I have purchased another battery from a 3rd party and it works very well, however it is bulky and I want to go back to the stock battery. If I go to school for like 5 hours and don't touch my phone at all the battery will decrease by 20-30%. I don't understand why this happens. I know its a smart phone and there are processes running, but I think that this drain is excessive. I've tried many battery saver apps from android market and I cant find anything that truly works. Juice defender seems to work decently, but it's not enough. I'm not techy and will not root my phone. Is there anything I can do to get my phone to save battery and not deal with these os processes when I'm not using it besides a task killer? (also i know about lowering screen brightness etc it still doesn't work)

Thanks!
 
Task killers do NOT save battery and in fact use more battery. Turn off wi- fi and bluetooth and all syncing. Or if you don't really need to use any network features, turn on airplane mode.
