10 hours of use is pretty good, but I've seen better posted here.
Didn't know there is as one, sorry.
I am sure there are MUCH better results for other people, still I am dead happy about mine
i can never get a proper reading from mine bec i always install and delete tweaks and resets the battery meter. wish there was a way it would retain the info when i respring
I've been on a mixture of WiFi and LTE all day and the only time it was plugged in was about 10min while I ran to Taco Bell and it was in the car cradle. I've been on it most of the time

You have some legit usage, the OP's usage is mostly from background tasks with the screen off as the 'lock screen' has the highest battery usage so is a pointless bragging point.
Mate you need to calm down, not sure why your so uptight about this post. I am not bragging, this isn't even amazing battery life compared to others, this was just a positive post about the overall performance of the iPhone 6 plus and how I am happy to own such a great phone.
Instead of doing a respring after downloading a tweak like cydia suggest, hold the power button and cut the phone off. Then cut it back on. Your usage stats will still be there
I got over 11 hours of usage five days on the trot with 8.1.1
I couldn't get more than 10.5 hours with 8.1.2, and it's a miracle if I reach 10 hours with 8.1.3.
Here is my 8.1.1 screenshot:
