Incredible has tremendous battery life

compared to the Droid 2. For my bday my wife got me R2D2 and I gave her my Incredible. My Incredible had terrific battery compared to the D2. I could get almost 2 days out of my Incredible compared to less than a day out of my D2.
 
I have had the D2 since Thursday. My battery life lasts around 10 hours with texting, calls, camera. My Incredible with similar use would last me over a day.
 
I am at 18% right now. 25 hours from last charge.

I turn off data connection at night, and while at work. I also have SetPCU on 225hz when the screen is off.
 
I swear I don't know how ANYONE gets more than about 4-6 hours (with "normal" use) out of their Dinc. With about 4 phone calls, 15-20 texts, and a 20-minute browse of the daily news using Dolphin in the morning, my phone is typically at about 40% by noon. And that's with the 1750. It's a really good thing that I love my Dinc so much!

I have the same problems, and man does angry birds kill your battery quick or what
 
I get 4 hours with my DI

I hope this is a joke. I'm constantly on pandora and/or texting, calls, watching videos. I normally get like 12 hours before needing to charge with heavy usage. On workdays I'm down to about 30% by 11PM (unplugged at 7AM) since I don't use my phone much at work.

I got the hardware version 3 with SLCD though.
 
I text constantly throughout the day, use the mp3 player while driving to and from school, obsessively use Internet and FB, Twitter apps, and I use my camera a lot. Idk how it affects battery, but i LOVE the flashlight app. I use it several times a day as well, and I can easily get 12 hours out of my dinc. I avoid vibrate on anything (notification, feedback), and turn off WiFi when I know I can't connect. I'm not a phone genius, but I assume these things help?
