my photos app runs in background for 14 hours of the day now, no way to stop. THIS BUG NEEDS FIXING

Use Background App Refresh

If you want suspended apps to check for new content, go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh and turn on Background App Refresh. If you quit an app from the app switcher, it might not be able to run or check for new content before you open it again.

Ok, look, I see a kind of a battle here.
On one side there are users level 1 (less than 50 points) saying that their batteries were ruined.
On the other side there are users level 7 (more then 20.000 points) saying that its not Apple's fault.
I quit, this conversation will go nowhere.

No one has said whose "fault" anything is. I have expressed no opinions on what may or may not be wrong with your battery. What we are saying is that only Apple can tell you what Apple will do. It doesn't matter if I think Apple should replace every battery for every person who requests it and for free. It only matters what Apple decides they are willing to do for you in your specific case. And the only way you can find that out is by asking Apple.

That is not the question. I have not replaced it yet.
The question is: "If I replace my battery and the drain continues, will Apple refund me?"

Maybe, maybe not. It would depend on 1) who replaced the battery in the first place (see my previous answer) and 2) what they determined was the cause of the problem. Also, of course, your phone would still need to be covered by warranty.
