Root battery life

[mattchewb]

I'm thinking about rooting the fiance's evo, she could careless about all the ins and outs of it. My main reason for wanting to do it is for battery life increase. When rooted and flashed to a custom rom is battery life increased? When I rooted and flashed a custom rom my battery life doubled on my hero. Is it possible for the evo?


Thanks,
Matt
