I recently started my 1st brute (lvl 19 atm) and I'm really enjoying him. I went for the same idea of a Stamina-less DM/Elec build and I will see once I get SOs whether it's really feasible. Endurance has been a major issue even with DO EndRdxs and not running more than 2 toggles at once. Dark Consumption helps a lot, but I need to see whether it will be enough (with Hasten + Lightning Reflexes) to get me to Conserve Power without too much of a sacrifice (and whether CP will make much of a difference). I'm pretty sure you can go Stamina-less after Power Sink, but it's a long, long road to get there. My build looks similar to yours except for Lightning Field which I took (too?) early and I plan to take Boxing/Tough/Weave and maybe Soul Tentacles in the 40s. Since it's my first brute, I'll let the experts comment on power choices and slotting.
CoX 50s: <ill/rad> <ice/ice> <fire/kin> <grav/sonic> <ice/storm> <earth/kin> <kin/elec> <cold/psy> <thugs/dark> <fire/dark> <dark/elec> <night widow> <EM/ninj> <mind/icy>
Try sacraficing lightning field, sure it's good for fury but notcied those powers are heavy in end and besides your other AoE powers will work just fine without it.
Weave? Um, why? it's like combat jumping but worse.

For jumping? Certainly! 
Anyway, couldn't think of anything else I would need at that stage, so thought some +def could always come in handy (and for that it's actually twice as good as CJ).

Is this for PvP or PvE..?
Im not so sure your end will good in PvE if ur planning that, my em/elec brute dont got stamina but hes end is great in PvP but very bad in PvE. Im not so sure though how good DMs end boost is so it still could work i guess for PvE
In pve you could go stamina less with just dark/ or /elec but you would be better off with someone like a kin versus a long haul fight against an AV or Hero. In all other areas you could time your end buffs well within groups of mobs. I wouldnt want to be without haste tho and a haste crash when your low on end can be dangerous and so timing and economic attack usage is important (aoes on 3 or more foes only maybe).
With a dark/elec you could forget haste if you wanted but i think you can have more end mods to each end buff power giving you more end on a tough single target like an EB with haste.
Conserve power should be enough to tide you over no matter what but you must atleast 1 end slot attacks before armours to gain more attack chains to an end bar. I have made a Scrapper with just conserve power for fun and one end buff power like dark consumption would of sealed it up nicely.
Then id finish up with mace mastery for the aoe -fly immob with -rechg.

Twice almost nothing is still almost nothing and the end cost certainly doesn't justify it's use, especially in a staminaless build. If you're really stuck for powers, get some of the fitness pool ones anyway - no end cost and they're pretty nice too.

I was for once trying to make a character without stamina and ended up to dark/elec brute, it seems to have the synergy for being staminaless. So far the build looks like this:
