To be honest i think the battery on the phone is gr8. For what you are using it for then i think its ok.
However to improve battery go into the network settings and switch the 3g function of.
This will improve the phone battery.

no offence, but to turn off 3g in a umts fone seems a bit pointless for me... i do get your point, but u loose more then u win. slower browsing, no video calls etc

Since putting on the new firmware ( R1eD001) my k800 seems to be lasting much longer on battery, could just be a coincidence.
