Default 7130e Battery Life

Please Login to Remove!

I'm trying to determine if my 7130e is defective since the battery drains in about a day with very minimum usage. The phone is constantly switching from 1EV to 1X to 1x due to limited coverage in San Francisco Bay area. The Green light blinks every few seconds. (I'm told that the green light blink represents a data poll). For example, My phone went from 90% battery to 75% battery while sitting on the counter for eight hours overnight. Bluetooth and location based services are not active. The screen turns off after 1 minute of idle time.

Here are my questions:
1. Is it possible that the 7130e is setup wrong, resulting in the battery drain?
2. Can I change the poll rate?

3. Do 1EV, 1X and 1x modes affect battery life?
4. Where do I purchase an extra battery at rock bottom price?

Thanks.
