I LOVE CyanogenMod and swear by it, but now it's not working well for me
So I used the BeatMod ICS 4.0 beta v.6.1 for HTC Inspire 4G, worked OK except my camera didn't work and I needed it, so I tried a Sense-based HTC stock rom (the TPC optimized version with root, etc.), which was OK but it wasn't good old CM so I just put CM 7.1 on it, and my battery sucks now
not sure what I did wrong, but it's terrible.
the only change otherwise is I'm using Avast! Android edition on my phone now... but that doesn't use a lot of CPU...

I'll add a screenshot in a short while, to prove it.
but how do I fix it?
Thanks!

you have merged everything together which caused instability, start everything from beginning, wipe device, return it to stock market state, afterwards start everything from beginning, flashing compatible kernel and ROM, and don't be ridiculous, why would you need to use antivirus on android, its just a marketing so they can suck money out of your wallet, even though as you said it doesn't requires much resources, if you aren't doing some serious business and keeping credit card accounts with thousands in mobile, you don't need it as regular day by day user

I'm going to go back to this:

Then I'm going to wait for CM9.
But I want to keep my Avast! on there.

FWIW, my battery life did not improve. Going back to the 100% stock ROM (not even rooted) didn't help...
So I re-rooted, and am running some random Sense 3.0 ROM...

This phone bothers the crap out of me!
At least it's well made; I've dropped it many times and I only have one tiny scratch, no cracks!

Perhaps the battery itself is end of life?
