I'm currently using version 4.6.9995.
Recently, I tried converting some epubs to kebpus using Kepubify, and while it did work, I noticed my font is at least 30% smaller on kepubs, than on epubs.
Is there any way of fixing this? I don't want to convert all books to kepubs, I just want to have both epubs and kebpus, with same font size.
Also, what's the best Glo HD version for today? The best optimized, battery life one?
I'm perfectly happy with 4.6.9995, should I upgrade at all?

Yes you should upgrade to 4.23.15548 because there are patches for this firmware that will make both the ePub and KePub use the same font size using the ePub font size. So they both have the same font sizes as ePub. Plus there area lot of new features such as series management meaning you won't need series based collections. A lot of us has dropped the series based collections and that makes collections a lot more manageable. Also, for ePub, highlighting works much better. There are other things as well. But to get ePub and KePub to have the same font size, this is the firmware you want and you'll need to patch it.
I suggest you read these two threads...
