If you get 8 hours of average use and only lose 7% battery then I want to know where you got your iPhone from, because that is a bunch of lies.
You got any screen shots of this super battery you own?

There is no way in hell that guy is getting 30-35 hours with medium to heavy usage either.
I was lucky to make it through the day with heavy usage before the jailbreak and its no better now.
Hi guys,
Just to add to this:
I have a battery issue post jailbreak on my iphone on 6.1.1. Like Adm3 i have taken the jailbreak off and battery life back to normal. I think i'm going to wait a while until a non evasion jailbreak comes out. I'm just hypothesising that it might be something to do with their jailbreak. I have never had battery issues when jailbreaking my ipod touch with redsnow.
I don't think you can just blame it on an old battery. I'm in the same boat and the battery drain issue started only after updating to 6.x and jailbreaking. Batteries don't just suddenly go bad. Maybe sometimes, but it's very rare and usually due to damage. Otherwise it will be a gradual reduction in performance over time. This problem is like flipping a switch.
I've tried just about everything at this point aside from doing a restore as new. I need to have a bigger window of time to do that since I'll need to rebuild everything like contacts and such that is just going to be a big PITA.
That's the last thing I can try. I don't know what to do if that doesn't work. Throw my phone out the window? My iPhone wouldn't be the same without ISX installed or some of the other essential tweaks that I've come to rely on. It doesn't help that jailbreaks are taking longer and longer. I think I would just rather bite the bullet and get an Android phone than have to go back to the stock iOS.
How old is your 4s? The older, the more likely the battery isn't going to be that great. I went vanilla for a bit waiting for the jailbreak and the battery wasn't all that great, probably just as good post jailbreak, I've had mine since the 4s first came out.
I guess I could try the temp restore and see if that helps.
Here is a screenshot of my phone yesterday. After about an hour and a half it's already down to 65%. The phone is almost always warm to the touch. There's also a screenshot from BatteryDetective. Shows a lot of drain and battery temp. That's with nothing running in the background.

edit - I know that the true battery capacity was higher before all this started and it is going down alarmingly. I think that whatever is draining the battery is wearing it out faster as well. FML.
NovemberWhiskey is right on the money with a 5-8% drain over night! I did a lot of testing and it appears the jailbreak its self is the culprit and not any one tweak or app.
