Same problem with the T420, T420 and T440 I have had. The T440 I couldn't get more than 3 hours out of it compared to 7-8 on windows. They had the PM set up properly. Powertop shows loads of things constantly waking the devices up.

Have you tried TLP? It was originally written specifically with Thinkpads in mind, but can be used on any laptop now: http://linrunner.de/en/tlp/docs/tlp-linux-advanced-power-man...
