I was reading up at apple, and you should disable your eq, keep your backlight off, and keep it at room temperature and it should go to about 14 hours for the 30 gig video for music. And only 2 hours of video. Keeping your backlight to about 2 seconds decreases it by maybe an hour. but the big thing is the eq.
