[Q] What Smart Actions Are You Running? - Motorola Droid RAZR

Just got the Maxx and so far I'm lovin it.
What Smart Actions are you guys running to help extend battery life? There seems to be a lot of possibilities.
Here's what I have so far:
1.Trigger:
*Wif-Fi Connection
Action:
*Cellular Data (disable)
*Bluetooth (off)
2.Triggers:
*Display (off)
*Charging (not charging)
*Motion Detector (no movement)
Action:
*GPS (off)
*Background Sync (off)
Anything else that might be useful? Can too many actions drain battery life?

I know a lot of people who set their 4g/wifi connection to turn off once the screen has been off for 15 minutes or so. I'm a programmer so my smart actions are never-ending IF statements. Here's some of mine:
Name: Sleep
Trigger: Late-night --> early morning, not charging
Actions: Data off, wifi off, GPS off, display 0% brightness, timeout 15 seconds, sync off, silent
Name: Sleep charging
Trigger: Late-night --> early morning, charging
Actions: Everything on except GPS, brightness 0% (burns my eyes otherwise), silent
Name: Work
Trigger: Wifi on & joined work Wifi
Actions: GPS off, timeout 15 seconds (incase a coworker tries to grab my phone), silent
Name: Charging
Trigger: Daytime
Actions: All sounds set to Loud, no display timeout, adaptive brightness, everything else on
Name: Low Battery
Trigger: Battery < 10%
Actions: Everything off except 3g
Some of these settings increased my battery performance substantially, with weak use of my phone I can make it last about 48 hours (regular RAZR). Never use Bluetooth so I keep it off 24/7

It's interesting to see what settings others use. I don't use Smart Actions, I froze the app so it won't run.

+1. And I can still go for 2 days with the maxx. Don't see the need for it.

I use trivial things, like loading Spotify when I plug in headphones (more often than not, an Aux cable). And of course the turn off cellular data while on Wifi.

first off I recommend you delete the trigger "Motion Detector" from your number 2, I find its sensitive to the slightest movement and seems to override the screen off trigger (meaning whatever your disable with this action will run just from the phone moving even if the screen is still off)
by default I have GPS off completely, on the rare occasion I need it I will turn it on manually.
I use one primary Smart Action and that is a reprogrammed "Battery Extender" with
TRIGGERS:
Screen Off
Charging (not charging)
ACTIONS:
Background Sync (Disable)
Cellular Data (Disable)
basically with these settings when the screen is off its equivalent to a "dumb phone", you can recieve calls and texts but no "push" notifications, this increased the time between charges by atleast 20% for me.
Also as I say in all these threads not forget to regularly (atleast every 2 weeks) power cycle (shutdown then reboot) your phone, I went like the first month of owning without ever shutting it off and when I got in the habit of doing this I noticed atleast a 10% increase in time between charge compared to never shutting off.
