I have had my Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 since January, at first no issues what so ever but lately it takes FOREVER to charge (once in a while I let the battery drain until the tablet turns itself off (mostly when it's giving me issues with charging). When I first got it no issues, I could use it while it was charging, it would continue charging no problem, would be fully charged within 4 hours max (not that long usually mostly 2 - 2.5 hours) but well for example yesterday night I let it drain completely cause of it draining while in use (found something while googling on "re-calibrating the battery" and following what it says). I often use it at night when I go to bed, play a few games and watch videos. Well I left it overnight and checked it when I came in here to use my computer (around 6:30PM tonight) it was only 52% charged (after charging for a entire day and part of another). Normally I'll plug it in when it hits 50 - 60% after in use but lately I can plug it in to charge and it continues draining, slower than if I didn't have it plugged in but still draining.
I use the charger that came with the tablet and no other chargers. When I charge it i have to charge it through a serge protector (cause the wall outlet is out of reach, I normally have it laying on my nightstand and a serge protector on my nightstand too (the cord of the charger is not long enough to reach the wall. Not sure if that matters or not (assuming that it used to charge fine up until the past few months I'm assuming that doesn't matter).
I have noticed since it updated from Lollipop to the marshmallow 6.0.1) the charging takes longer than usual...
Last, I figured out how to get screenshots from my tablet and took a screenshot of my battery page in the settings, thought it looked very.... odd..

Thanks for any help.
