surface book battery drain while shut down

This happens to me too.  I always do a shut down when done using the device because of all I have heard about the sleep problems.  I left it shut down in the basement after using about 40% total power and when I went down to get it about a day, day and half later the batteries were at 0%.

I just want to add I have the i5/8GB/Dgpu.  This unit is about a week old, and is a replacement of my last unit.

I have done all updates, I have not touched any power settings.

My normal routine is to use it at night, I've used it every night since I bought it, and then in the morning put it on the charger.  I have not turned on in the AM to take note of any % drop, but I may now.

Of more interest is that I had to replace my last one due to main battery at 0% and not charging.  I think I may have left it off charge for a few days at that time too, but didn't think anything of it.  

Both batteries were at 0% this time but after a 2 hours or so last night were almost fully charged.

I will pay more attention to shut down at night levels and morning levels.  I'll post my results.  

If detaching works better I will try that as over the weekends it's highly likely I don't get it on a charger all the time.  I don't want to fear discharging a battery.

I hope the Jan patches fix this.

For what it's worth, I'm not surprised that they aren't giving us progress reports.  They can't know how long it will take to fix a bug, so they'd be reluctant to do anything that could be taken as a promise to fix it by a certain date.  But I am frustrated that they didn't just wait a few months to release the machine.  It's a great machine, but it clearly wasn't ready for release when they shipped it.

Yeah same things happen to you I have it! I mean it's seems they won't help his on this! They extend the pried of fixing to January just to ignore us! I won't take anything from them ! They have no respect for is ! I paid $1800 for nothing !

Also, just booted up my Surface Book having not used it for about a week to two weeks and the battery drained from around 80% to 25%. That is a bit disconcerting. I don't have any other piece of technology that does that while completely shutdown.

All problems that people says we still have no surface book sleep and battery life is poor also when you click to use tablet mode it's shows blue Windows screen ! They should be shame of those problems !  Any way I won't buy anything from them next time ! Because they should know selling laptops without any review that's funny. They just need money, but when it comes to quality of the product is like trash.
