The battery of my 2017 tbMBP went from 27% to 15% while sitting closed on the desk, all apps closed, during the 10 hours I was out of the house today.

I know that many people have experienced battery drain while sleeping, and have tried disabling something or tweaking something in Terminal, but I had not had any problem, and had not tried any special tricks. Is this a High Sierra issue? Or something that suddenly happens when the laptop reaches the four month mark? Or?

Thanks.
 
normal. draining more only depend on what is on your background running. try a fresh restart and leave it to sleep will be minimum draining.
