I Close out my apps and still have about 43gb available so it's far from full. But when I put it to sleep (or hold )and return to it, so much of the battery has drained. My very first iPad held a battery much better than this- even if I forgot to turn off and went back a few days later it still hadn't drained much. This newer iPad doesn't last nearly as long.
Hi. Try to follow the instructions on this page in order to maximize your battery life: https://www.apple.com/batteries/maximizing-performance/

Try to reset your device. This won't delete your data stored on the phone.
You may also try to reset all settings: go to Settings - General - Reset - Reset All Settings
You may also try to follow these steps:
1. Navigate to settings/general/ battery usage. Check the applications. This will show you which app eats up your battery.
2. Turn off iCloud keychain: Navigate to Settings/ iCloud/Keychain / turn it off.
3. Limit apps activity on the background: Navigate to Settings/ general/ Background App refresh/ turn it off for each application which uses to much power.
4. Disable auto brightness: Navigate to settings/ display and brightness/ auto-brightness. Turn this option off.
Sounds like you are experiencing shorter battery life than expected with your iPad. Try turning off Background App Refresh in Settings>General>Background App Refresh. This will save battery on your iPad while you are not using it. Also check out this helpful link: http://www.apple.com/batteries/maximizing-performance/

iPad Air 2 does Not hold a charge very well at all.
