My iPhone basically sits on 24/7. I only use it for emergencies, so it rarely sees any use. And everyday it needs 30 minutes of charging (about 500mAh worth) a day.

But like once per month, instead of waking up to 90% charged, it is 10% or lower. Which now requires 90 minutes or more worth of charging. I have no idea what in the blazes it was using power for all night. Any ideas?

UPDATE: Battery Health shows a few applications running only a few minutes total for the last 10 days. It does show the huge battery drain last night, but gives no reason for it.

And people wonder why I don't often update. Who needs those features? This iPhone is currently running iOS 12.2. It doesn't even seem to have Siri on it. Maybe back then you had to go to the App Store to get it.

I have no idea what it would be reporting. There is nothing on it, nor is it used for anything. Wait... I do take photos of my mods from time to time from my phone.

BillW50 Many apps depending if they're running or not will check if there any updates for you, or even the OS checking for updates on your behalf. Mine does not show any abnormal drain overnight, but it does on the odd day

Anybody ever own one of these Sunbox E8 Moonraker mods? I've never heard of them before (until now) and they were first seen in 2016 and you could get them with a DNA25 or a DNA40. These sold for about 500 bucks out of Italy. And fancy panels for them were over 100 bucks a set. Kind of reminds me a little of a vape.Tools Railbox DNA40 (which I do have), but this is smaller.

If it would accept 23 mm atties I'm pretty sure I'd go for an SXK one. But 22 mm is max.

Did you order one from 3FVape since it states 22 mm, but it actually can take a 23.x mm? They also say it dispatches in 3 - 14 business days. I ordered one last Friday (China was already off for the weekend) and today is Tuesday, and the package tracking shows it is just 300 miles away from me right now. Unbelievable! Who is this USPS Shipping Partner 4PX EXPRESS USA?

Nope I passed on it.

So on the gas grill at work, I removed the six 1.02 mm orifices (LP) and drilled them out to 1.70 mm (NG) and now it works great.

Twice a year the city and the trash truck company team up for a too big to put in the trash week. I generally refer to it as Christmas. It's amazing what wealthy folks with throw away.
Just a few minutes before I arrived at work someone discarded their electric 8 speed mountain bike. Judging from tire wear I'd say it has less than 200 miles on it. It has a nice cable lock and I have the combination too. Battery is already fully charged and has the charger.
Next is a very nice rechargeablelight:

What I don't have is the key that lets you remove the battery,

oops, its an 8 speed not 18 speed.
