Jellyverse 4.0 battery life

So I was just curious if this rom was known for short battery life? If my screen is off, sure, battery last a pretty long time, but if I'm on facebook for like 5 or 10 minutes, I lose at least 10 percent battery life. Is that normal? I've calibrated the battery, so didn't know if there were other options?
 
Don't have the power save options on. During the day, I have the screen on brightest, then when it starts to get darker, I dim it all the way. I'll check out the power saving stuff though.
 
I don't run my screen at full brightness unless I am outside in the Sun. I also like to use the auto brightness.
 
That will cap your cpu clock speed so it won't get to full 1.2Ghz. You can leave that one off as when your cpu is not working hard it slows down anyway.
 
Right on. I'm just using the stock battery saver that's under the settings. That good enough? Or is there something better recommended?
 
For your needs, it should work good. I also run DS battery saver (available on the play store), but I'm not sure it would be of help to you or not. What it does it allow you to turn off data while the phone is asleep (screen off) and then wake data when you wake the phone. I have mine set to wake the data twice an hour for a minute each to check email etc while the screen is off and be on when I am using it. It doesn't mess with the voice side so you still get your calls when the screen is off..
 
Cool, there is a free version. I got the pro version (more options), but it isn't expensive. I do get more run time as I am not wasting power when not actively using the phone.
