Hey y'all, I haven't seen a thread about actual numbers that people are seeing except for those that are high or low. Im going to post my numbers from today and lets compare and see what the average lives are out there in the wild. Now I know everyone uses their phone differently but I think it would be interesting to see everyones numbers so feel free to post your usage numbers.

I am getting these numbers from bada$$ battery monitor mentioned by Fox.

Battery usage - 89% (14:20:12)
Phone: 00:02:05
Screen 05:10:17
Phone Radio: 14:20:10
Wifi: 3:59:01
Held Awake: 1:27:04
Bluetooth: 0
App Usage: 56.2%

That is using it all day to check twitter, tapatalk, foursquare, some browsing, apps and app store. Email is polling once an hour. Im not sure about that held awake stat, can someone help me out with that?
Anyway whats your usage like?
 
Over the past week or so im averaging 18h40min and my wife is averaging 30 hours plus. Below are my stats

Battery Usage - %50 (14:31:28)
Phone - 00:18:09 11.2%
Screen - 02:30:16 15.4%
Phone Radio - 14:35:24 4.0%
Wifi Active - 06:18:50 5.8%
Held Awake - 04:18:16 1.5%
Bluetooth - 00:00:00 0.0%
App Usage- 61.8%

and my app breakdown shows the Kernel as 35.9% of that nothing else over 6.0%. I easilly make it all day and never drop below %15 before it hits the charger. This is with GPS and 4G on %100 of the time, overall im very happy.

Hey guys and gals, try THIS (Battery Monitor Widget)! I have found it tons better than BadA$$ Battery Monitor. Lots more stats, gives you direct access from the Status bar, and you have a Widget available on screen as well.
 
Thanks! Been using it for at least 2 Weeks, doesn't even sip from the battery yet produces nice data.

Fox- I had "Battery Monitor" looks like a gas gauge w/number also. Looked like car gauges for temp/staus/etc. seemed to use about 2% power. Your app (BMW) do you have the number in the task bar?

Also, Fox, any experience on the GoLauncher, GoLocker, etc on battery usage?

Installing the suggested app as I type. Here's yesterday's usage numbers with the stock battery app. A screen capture would be nice...This was from 100% to 15% plug in warning. Just wrote down main users of battery there were about 5 various apps that were below 8% use.
On Battery Time 12 hours 47 minutes
Display 32% 7 hours 2 minutes
Dolphin 16% CPU 1 hour 7 minutes
Voice 12% 28 minutes
Wifi 8% 12 hours 47 minutes
Android 8% 36 minutes

Typical battery life, good battery life??
