Resurrection absolutely KILLS my battery. Not sure what ROM to use now, either go back to regular CM or Google Edition (which only goes up to 5.1) or even stock

For what it's worth, I've gone back to CM12 (5.x) from CM13 (6.x) on my Nexus 5. CM13 wasn't as smooth, and didn't do nice things to my battery. I suspect something to do with bluetooth. My tile app (running constantly) uses about 1-2% of CM12, and just to more like 8-9% on CM13.

I've actually gone back to the stock 5.0.1 Spark firmware, which I've never used before. Actually seems nice, and I am getting much better battery life.

I added nova launcher as I didn't like the stock one

I may give GPE a go again.
