My Droid Turbo has been burning through an entire charge in less than half a day. I've shut it down, then restarted which seems to help at the time, but the issue comes right back. Any suggestions on what to do. Love the phone, but can't have it lasting only 5hrs.

Most often, this is the result of an app running in the background that leeches battery power. That phone shouldn't, by design, be getting such terrible battery life. I routinely get nearly two days on each charge, and I'll get a full day if I'm playing a lot of games/movies. That said, I hope you conditioned your battery properly according to the instructions. According to Verizon (

"For the first 3 charge cycles, fully charge the battery overnight and allow it to fully discharge before recharging (battery conditioning)."
Look on Google Play for one of the utilities that helps track which apps are running along with their CPU usage. You can then disable some of the apps to see if you can find one that's draining the battery. Be careful, though, because you don't want to disable anything needed by your phone or by the Android OS. If you do it one app at a time, it will take longer but will make it easier to find the issue.
Another possibility is that your battery or phone may have an issue. If you can't find an app that's draining your battery, you might want to take it in.
