Now my battery drain is solved.


As I mentioned a couple of days ago in this thread, I stopped using Google Chrome and I ensure "Google Chrome Helper" is not running. This solved my battery drain because "Google Chrome Helper" was constantly using 100% of CPU.


I've also configured Spotlight as mentioned by other people but in my case I think it was the Chrome issue.
