I'll attach my config files.  I replaced the battery, and it lasts a little longer, but it still dies pretty quickly.

johnb:
backlight fade out: 300

seems kinda way to long for me.

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you.

Where did you get a 900 mah battery?  Did you change that setting just playing around or are you running an aftermarket battery which claims such a capacity.  That's 50% more than the stock 60/80GB battery and pushing the limits of credibility.

You're also running four bands of EQ.  That's going to consume battery.

You can turn off the accessory power supply and the lineout to save decent amounts of power.  You appear to have them on.

Why is LCD sleep after backlight off set to 5?  That's not a massive amount of wasted power, but are you really looking at the WPS with the screen on but the backlight off?

Why is idle poweroff set to 5?  It's probably better to let the iPod idle for much longer than reboot it multiple times a day IF this low setting is causing multiple shutoffs.
