A shame, as I really liked Energy.

If you don't have quick charge enabled you can very easily have a higher discharge rate than your charge rate. (See post #5) The standard usb charge rate is only 400mA + and with BT on you could be above a discharge of 480mA+.... with the nuebattery drivers you can enable this and have a charge rate of 900mA+

Also keep in mind that ENRGZ states that he puts these roms out with the settings like HE likes ... backlight 100% etc. He doesn't set anything at all for good battery life

See ENGRZ Quote "I dont care about the battery life either.. that's why I have a charger wherever I am and even in the car!"

You definately need to do some fine tuning if you are looking for better battery life.... yes requires a little work, but IMHO it's worth it... instead of switching to another rom because you think that you can't get good battery life with enrgz.
