There is no way to know the answer to your question since the rapid battery drain you are experiencing might be due to other factors than a software update.


However, if you do update to the latest version, it may be easier to identify the cause of the rapid battery drain if the problem persists.


If you are undecided about upgrading you could try the Apple tips for optimizing battery usage through settings and also have the Genius Bar do a hardware check to eliminate that as a source of your current problems.
