Custom kernel for nexus 4 with cm12.1

looking for a custom kernel for extending battery life.
found AK but don't know much about it.
which one should I download?
there's AK.307.OPO.CM12.1.zip but does it work with nexus 4?
what's UKM_v3.8.4.0_Special_Ed.zip

any ideas?

thank you..

Well Franco kernel has always been one of my favorites.

Use Quanta kernel - xda forum- CM version - it is franco based so it works just the same with Franco Updater app - but dont update it with franco kernel ! http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/development/kernel-sabermod-franco-kernel-r211-t2858561

It also has its own FREE app - Quanta tweaks - this gives you extra optional double tap to wake [dt2w]- exponential brightness [extremely low brightness] and USB OTG with a power bar and correct cable [and stickmount app].

It is an amazing combination and I get over 6 hours of screentime and with low usage 7 days of standby battery
