I was having the same issue... Everyone said the Battery life with 901 was great, after I installed it I was barely getting half a day with minimal use. I posted this question in a different Post, Sanitarium09 told me to run the "Battery Calibration" app (free from market). You have to be root for it to run but it fixed my issues. Now I am getting the battery life everyone was so happy about. Hope this helps.

I briefly had some odd battery issues at one point after the update. I installed Watchdog Lite and found that an app I installed (Power Scheduler) to schedule turning Bluetooth on and off at certain times was causing a CPU race condition.

I got a car dock, so I really don't need scheduled bluetooth anymore (one-touch button). Uninstalled the app, and now all is good. It's worth at least installing Watchdog Lite to see if you have a rogue app somewhere.
