I love my rp2 but I have absolutely ungodly bad battery drain

I'm getting a drain of about 3% per hour while the phone is not in use. According to accunattery, the worst culprit app is chrome using a total of only 0.08%

Is there a way without root that I can figure out what system services are killing this?

I've got the RP2 as a replacement for my 5th RP1, kept having issues until I told them they better send the RP2 this time. So they listened, I've had it now for around 2 months. Experiencing same issue as you pal. Battery drains fairly quickly, especially when in use, it also gets rather hot, particularly top half towards the right side. I'm pretty sure this device had been refurbished in the past so hence the issues. Maybe best thing to do is to just send this one back too, I'm still under contract so might be a good idea.

My RP2 was draining about 13% overnight. No apps showed abnormal use, but I got a tip from another user about the theme store app. I noticed it was constantly checking for completed downloads even though I had never installed anything. I disabled the app and now I only drain about 2% overnight (8) hours. Daytime use is now fine too.
