Found a nice battery widget called free beer battery widget. It's a nice beer glass that drains as Battery does. Also different choice of size.

Pretty neat will keep it for a bit to see if it drains the battery, I read if you get the add, just click on the add once and then you will not get anymore down the road, and if you still have another battery widget installed in the meantime till you decide which one you will keep , stop the process on the other so you do not have 2 running at the sametime to conserve your battery

I'm not that good to figure out how to stop anything. Lol. Uninstall is my specialty. If you find excessive drain would you post it here? Thanks

Very easy and this way I do not need to use a task killer, go to an empty screen location, hit the plus key/shortcut/settings/running services then that will put a shortcut on the screen, once there, just tap it, then any app you see running and you want to kill simply long press for a couple of seconds and click stop, then your good to go for that process until you reboot again, then you have to kill it again, I kill V/mail as I use Youmail service, then I also kill Sprint TV, Google Talk is one that also always starts at reboots so I kill that, as a matter of fact I will check to see if I can uninstall that now for the heck of it, but you get what I am saying, some may beg to differ but my battery now last me almost all day from 7 AM to midnight, hope that helps you

No luck in getting rid of Google Talk unless someone else here know how, I have tried both with my uninstaller and the manage apps, and no luck

I don't use a task kiler, I simply end the process on 3 apps with the built in app.

 

[ccapasso]

Yeah, not necessarily you. Was simply putting it out there as the use of one was mentioned

IF u cant get an app to stop running go to applications under settings and long press and that will give u the option of runing it.
