@mautz: Would it be possible to make a kernel without that 300Hz timer rate? Is that even used in your kernels? A quick search showed me, that it should be a kernel setting.
This is absolutely true for me as well. In 2.0.1.11 it was fairly good on those earlier CM builds. Immediately upon going to the later 12.1 builds and on to 2.0.2.x/2.0.4.x, the drain increase is dramatic. Sometimes as high as 1% per minute with the screen on. I commented on it in this thread and others, but it seemed to be a known issue that most were OK with as we couldn't really pin it down. I'm almost certain @minimec is on the right track with the 300Hz timer rate.

I'd like to see if we can solve it with that change!
