Help *UPDATE* Beautiful Widgets...using more battery life now?

I've noticed something odd with beautiful widgets...seems to be using more battery life now. I've been using it for a long time, but I am starting to see it in my battery usage area higher and higher. I've been off the charger for 1 hour and beautiful widgets is at 10% battery usage, which is odd (launcher pro is at 3%). I don't have GPS Enabled(I have my location set), I only use the weather/clock(superclock) widget on the home screen with 1 hour intervals on the weather updates and the vibrate widget. I don't use anything else with it.

What could be causing this? I played a game for 10 minutes earlier and beautiful widgets is above that game in the battery manager. I don't remember beautiful widgets ever eating much battery in the past.
 
hmmmmmm not sure what your issue is? I have basically the same setup you do and BW isn't even listed as a battery user in my list.
Unplugged the phone at 7:30am yesterday and got home at 6:30pm after average use with the phone all day with 60% charge left.

Hope you find the culprit...........
 
Figured something out...the super clock widget(i was using 4x1) uses way more battery than the home weather widget even though they both do basically the same thing. My battery use from BW is now around 3% where it should be....super clock was anywhere from 10%-20% using the same exact settings on a given day.
