The Lbook firmware that I linked to is part of an ongoing development project for CoolReader, so ABSOLUTELY NOTHING is proven yet. Personally, I have not seen any battery issues, but then I did not see them with Astak/Jinke's March release either. The unreleased Lbook firmware definitely has some minor bugs or it probably would have been released through normal channels. It takes less than 5 minutes to load new firmware so that fastest way to know if a firmware package is something that you want to use is just to load it. If you do not like it, then load something else. It is not like loading firmware into the reader is an irrevocable decision, since you can always load something else as the bootloader is never affected by loading new firmware.
BTW, there is one bug that I have found with the unreleased Lbook firmware, and that is that sometimes key presses are swallowed if they immediately follow a menu page turn. When you press the key again then both key presses are processed. That seems to be pretty minor for unreleased firmware that is still in the development process?
