I've got some tags and thought I'd use them more than I do too.
One is on the back of the ipad, and switches on tethering for it. Another is in the car, switches on Bluetooth, and messages my wife to saying on the way home.

What if you're not going home? Do you have a seperate one for the way to work?

I reckon wifi drains ~30-50% on my nexus 7. When I keep it turned off (except when I actually want to use it), it doesn't kill the battery in < a day.

They used to ship them wide open, I'm glad they changed that. Although a local ISP still ships some with WEP. I can crack wep is about 10 seconds!

When you reckon that are you checking the battery stats? It'll tell you with some precision. Bit odd for wifi to kill a tablet battery in one day though, it's never occurred to me to turn my iPad wifi off.

Definitely sommat weird happening there, I leave wifi permanently on on my n7 and it'll go for ... well, I don't know cos I use it a fair bit, but leaving it on (it'll go to sleep of course) for a day doing nothing doesn't even drain 1% of the battery.

Stats show display using 95%, but not what's used when display is off.

well... that's just everything else in that list, surely? Which are likely used when display is on or off. The display is using 95% of your battery, as in the screen being on is the main power draw. Which sounds much more likely. It's a lot of pixels to push.

I'm thinking now it may be silent updates that's doing it. I left the WiFi on all day at work (as usual) and didn't plug in the USB (unusual) and it only drained ~7% or so including an hour surfing before work, and half hour of eBook reading on the subway (Mountains of Madness) after a full charge last night.
