Lion and battery life!

[jonjon1]

Hi! I updated to Lion like a month ago!
At the beginning the battery life wasnt that bad! probably 2 hours less than with Snow Leopard! (I have a Macbook Pro 2.2 Quad core i7)
Now the battery like can be compared to a windows laptops... about 3 to 4 hours doing simple stuff!
Does anyone have the same problem? Could someone fix it somehow?

i just downgrade to SL because battery life is terrible and i have some lags on lion

Yaeh! Thought about that too. But i guess u dont get the money back. I preffer waiting for an update that may fix it!
And Since i have a new mac mini, Air Drop ist just awsome! For me the best thing about Lion!

Did you update to 10.7.1?

I have 7 hours since 10.7.1

At least 6:30 on Early 2009 17" 2.66GHz 8GB. Just about the same as with SL. (no display sleep; periods of low activity, but with self-refreshing web page and Mail fetching every 5 min.; ~50% backlight; kybd light auto; BT off; graphics set to 9400M)
