Hey Dave, just so you know this is posted in the wrong section but that's ok. If you have a general diamond question, put it in the diamond section rather than the upgrade section. Regarding your question, I can assure you that touchflo doesn't cause your battery to drain twice as fast. In fact, if you install a battery monitor you will see that it drains on average about the same as a rom without touchflo. But if you are looking to install a rom without touchflo, I would recommend downloading a kitchen from Calcu or SSK or one of the others available here. then you can uncheck touchflo in build os and have a manilla free rom. I will tell you that it doesn't take much ramp up time to learn how to use a kitchen and you will be happy once you do. That way you can pick what programs are installed on your rom, it allows you the flexibility to create a custom rom of your choice. Also, if you have questions, people will help you in the rom threads. good luck.
edit: also, I agree with capthr. If you are using 6.5 roms, then Energy rom is a great selection as is da_reeseboy rom, and many others that don't include touchflo. Energyrom has 3 releases, one of which is titanium only.
