For what it's worth, I used Juice Defender Ultimate on my old gingerbread phone (wildfire), and it worked well there to save battery. However on ICS/Velocity, it seems to have no positive effect for me, and even seems to reduce battery life. It might be because of the additional overhead apps use when they can't get some of the access they expect, or it might be because forcing sync via JD default 'balanced' profile ultimately increases radio use frequency, or it may just be something for my phone.
The three less known things I do to get excellent battery life are the lower autobrightness mod, using DroidWall as a firewall to disable internet access to apps that really don't require it, and finally check partial wakelocks as it's likely Google Backup Sync is keeping your device awake for no reason.
