I have read about reported problems with battery life on the new MacBook pros but mine seems a bit different. Mine seems to drain battery while sleeping. On my old MacBook Pro I could put it to sleep overnight and it would use minimal battery. With this one on 100% charge when I wake it in the morning I'm sitting at about 70% remaining. I do not have power nap enabled, any ideas?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS Sierra (10.12.2)
This is still a problem as of 10.13.2. I was losing around 18% battery per day of standby on my 2016 15" MBP. I disabled Find My Mac and sleep battery use went down to 3% over 19 hours, only waking up a few times instead of every 2 hours.
I disabled "Find my Mac" for now and it stopped the annoying wake ups.
I am still looking for a different solution since I want to re-enable Find my Mac.
I am now working with Apple support on the problem. I can reproduce it consistently. I have find my Mac disabled and it still happens. I'll post an update if we come to a resolution.
Working with Apple support over the past week it sounds like we should expect a fix in 10.12.4. I don't want to install the beta on my production machine, so fingers crossed.
Thanks Ken. That explains what happened. I left my USB C connecters attached.
