Power usage - Battery Drain

[sphinx88]

I have been struggling with my battery life and started to make some measurements with a program called PowerGuard v1.2. I was hoping that someone might be able to give me some comparable results..

My Tilt is pulling the following mA draw
Idle: 75mA
On With Backlight: 140mA
In Call with Backlight 325mA
In Call w/o Backlight 250mA

Can anyone provide some results to compare? I have heard that idle usage should be around 50mA.

I found the Software here:

Without using PowerGuard and just using AEButton i can tell you that idle my device draws 7mA

I did not now AEButton had an option for recording power draw... Will give it a try...
How about in-call usage? That seems to be what is killing me.. my standby time seems great...

It doesn't monitor but has the option to show uptime and mA usage calls always kill battery, but then very dependant on Radio.

I get 1.5 days of a 2700 and am happy :D
