I know it has been mentioned but really heavily discussed. So how is battery life for everyone on official ics and ics roms? For me it is very sporadic, nowhere near as consistent as BP was for me. I am stock rooted ics with most bloat frozen. I can however get comparable life, just not as consistently.
Here is a screen shot of the best life I have gotten so far. This is moderate use and I do keep my data off and us airplane mode while sleeping.

my phone was just upgraded to ics and the battery is being drained like crazy. I tried to disable what I could and force stop stuff I dont ever use, bu it went from 15% to shutting off in 30 minutes and it was locked and sitting in my pocket. What am I doing wrong if anythig?

You probably have a rogue app causing bad battery drain. Use an app like better battery stats to find it. Better Battery Stats is a paid app from Chainfire but it's worth every cent...especially in cases like this.
