Help Help me decode my battery use.

Hi, I'm after some help working out where my battery is being used. Is this a pretty normal graph? I have a feeling that I'm just using the phone a lot and that's why I'm not getting a full day but it does seem worse than my Desire. Any help or tips would be appreciated, thanks.

The battery is really worser then from the Desire.
Try the following:
When not using Wifi turn it off.
When not using GPS turn it off.
Set the screen to automatic.

Ans you can also try the app: Juice Defender or Green Power.
 
Mark, how long do you get on average on a 0%-100% charge?

Best I've had is 51 hours, average is normally 40+. I use Green Power Premium and at night switch to Airplane Mode (uses about 3% overnight)

I get around half a day of use but I know that it's because I use it a lot. On the graph the screen is on most of the time. I'm trying to work out what's happening when the screen is off. Does that look like a pretty normal graph to you?

Half a day is very bad, do you play music on it? The graph doesn't look too bad but there's obviously a steady drain from something.
