So, right now, my homescreen/lockscreen is apparently using...34% of battery, according to the iOS 8 battery log thing. Is that normal? I'm also getting just 6 hours of battery now, per charge.

I don't have many tweaks. Just springtomize, groovylock/forecast/ls clock, winterboard theme, few aesthetic tweaks, idk.

It might be forecast, I'm not sure.

My percentages are slightly different, but the home/lockscreen use the majority of battery on mine. However I get way more than 6 hours on a charge and I'm on 8.1.1

I don't use forecast, but I use IntelliscreenX, Weatherboard, Folderenhancer, callbar, bioprotect, protean, springtomize 3, underface, wake info 2, and winterboard. Have a few other small ones that shouldnt effect battery life.

Yeah, I'm really confused about everything tbh.

I'll see what happens...worst comes to worst, I return it for my 4th replacement, and I hop on the Taig train.

I hear 8.1.1/2 improves battery life over 8.1...is that true?
 
BatteryUsageEnhancer should help clear up what the drain is. But you need to install it manually through iFile

So so, it fixed a few constant logging issues. But it's better for the 6+ imo
