Nexus 6p battery free fall

The new Nexus 6p. The battery jumped from about 50% to almost zero during the night when I was asleep. I couldn't wake it up this morning and its red light was flashing. I had to plug in the cable to wake it up. I have my screenshot here and you can see the crazy gap like a memory loss. Any thought is appreciated.

Try clearing cache partition and downloading a battery monitor to see if it's an app causing it...

Wow, l only loose 1 - 2% overnight since I have had mine. You've definitely got something weird going on there. Uninstall all the apps except stock & see what happens.

I wonder if posters who are experiencing bad battery performance should post which non-stock apps they have installed. We might notice a common app(s) that could be the culprit.

Three apps that are known to cause issues with the phone going into Doze are GasBuddy, WeatherBug, and MyRadar -- if you have one of these apps installed and Bluetooth on (even if no devices are connected) then the phone will stay in a "wake" state.
