Couldn't really tell a significant difference in battery life with various voltage profiles and I want max stability. So now the only thing I do is:

kernel-config limits 250 850

Gives a nice improvement and the phone will run for weeks.
Thanks for the advice, I tried it out and was happily waiting for a reboot and... nothing, it ran nicely! Almost.

Almost. After about15 minutes, the status bar/clock area started flashing between completely gray and normal and a smattering of status icons also flashing. After closing several apps and not being able to stop the flashing, I rebooted anyway...

I really hope there is yet another more conservative approach for me - has anyone experienced this problem? Should I just de-install?
