Ctmod 3.8
Using smartassv2 and sio. For me battery is impressive at 1 ghz, okay at 1.4, marginal at 1.6 and abysmal at 1.8 BUT that may be because if I've got the cpu set high it's because I'm doing something that's gonna use it to that level Lol. It was more off a convenience thing...like I rarely play games unless plugged in and a lot of times I launch some game and it's running poorly and I go "oh, right, still at 1ghz..."
Also as I've said before my warp over heats at 1.8 ghz after about 15 minutes if something is running to use it at 100 percent

Gotcha. The battery has always been a weak spot for the Warp, especially when playing processor intensive games... To answer your original question, I don't know of any way to do that without writing some code... Maybe by adding an intent to the manifest and going from there? Maybe someone with a little more experience will chime in... I did see something that might help on XDA, although I haven't tried it:

I use an app called autostarts which stops background processes from boot of your choice. This paired with lbe privacy guard which stops a lot of unwanted internet connectivity and unwanted permission scars access this reducing many processes. I also keep 3g and Wi-Fi off unless I use browser or need access. auto our low brightness screen settings. This isn't as much maintenance as it sounds and significantly reduces battery usage. For me almost double. I was running ct as well.

the short answer is yes... set cpu( althogh its not the best) has profiles. so you can set speeds for certain conditions... like if battery is lower thanX or if plugged in or whatnot... it's not the best cpu control app but it does handle profiles like you where asking...

yea and you could even get the 2000 mah which is a extended batterie but still fits in the original back cover...I would also look into buying a new battery, This really should not be happening.
They are actually pretty cheap

I have the battery from my first warp which I only used for three months and I keep as a backup. I tHink this battery is okay though. I've been Running on battery with moderate usage for 5 hours and I'm at 45 percent. Moderate meaNing Wi-Fi on, web surfing, music, and one episode of mythbusters lol. Screen brightness set to auto. Airplane mode as I havE no cell service lol. I have battery monitor widget and it shows me how many milliaMps I'm using.
So overall I'm not to unhappy with the battery, but if I crank it to 1.8 and play a game my battery widget will show usage of over 150 percent per hour lol. Where as now at 1 ghz and posting this message I'm showing 8 percent per hour.

There sure is! A simple init.d script could be made to do the job. The functionality would basically be just an extension of PowerNap.

I think you can set up profiles with ROM Toolbox and do it that way...?
RomToolbox is 8.42MB and SetCPU 1.53MB. I think the best app to control CPU is SetCPU, version 3.0.9 (latest one) eats around 3MB of RAM and works very well, but would be better a full functional scrippt.

I use voltage control, rom toolbox is good for that but I guess I use voltage out of habit

It's actually what You want it to be.
You can make a certain profile 100%
top priority over anything else.
