[Q]HELP...ViperOne M8 4.2.0 Battery Life topic

I have read a lot of threads saying how horrible the battery life is on this Lollipop Rom. I love ViperOne Roms!!! I have loved them since the M7 days and dont like to run any other Rom. My only complaint is the battery life of this particular version of the Rom, 3 .2.1 was amazing! I just wanted the Lollipop and such. My question is...? Has anyone found a kernel or something that gets better than 4-6 hours of phone use. I unplug my phone at 6am Monday-Friday and by noon I am at 15-10% I don't play games.. I am E-mailing, SMS, Music, Talk (6-10 calls lasting 2-3 mins each) surfing the web. I don't use my phone any different than the 3.2.1 version of the ROM and I would be at 30-40% at 6pm . Someone Please Help Me Out Or Point Me In The Right Direction. Thank you and sorry this post is so long.
