Question [Q] VillainROM or Lite'ning Rom?

Hi!

I heard a lot of SGS2 users talking about these 2 custom ROMs like Lite'ning and Villain ROMs. Right now I'm using the Lite'ning ROM and I'm pretty happy with it, but I feel taht I need a change you know. So I was thinking to chnage my current rom to Villain ROM, but I don't know if it worth it? I need help to decide myself.

I would like to know which have the best battery life as I usea lot WIFI, internet and games. I focus most on the battery usage and a bit of style system improvements.

So, help me do decide, Lite'ning ROM or Villain ROM?

I don't even think it's worth rooting this phone right now. It's up to date, it's fast, all as stock...

I actually feel that samsung made this phone pretty beastly as is and did a good job on the fw, so i prefer just stock KG6; I do from time to time flash CM7 to see how its running along with its changes. I say either CM7 or Stock samsung is amazing for this phone.
If I helped you at all, feel free to hit the thanks button!

Depends what you do....

Nobody can predict your battery life, try it and see, don't like it, flash back......
