Hi folks,

i realise this is going to be the most helpful log file in the world, but it's got me stumped so i'm hoping someone else has seen something similar.

The last few nights my macbook (late 2013 retina) has mysteriously drained most of its battery while supposedly asleep. I've got nothing plugged into the mac, and the lid was left closed. When i've had a look the following is in the console, seems to sleep for about 4 hours, then wake itself every minute with a "?" reason.

Feb 21 17:30:37 MBP kernel[0] <Debug>: Wake reason: EC.LidOpen (User)
Feb 21 17:43:35 MBP kernel[0] <Debug>: Wake reason: EC.LidOpen (User)
Feb 21 18:33:04 MBP kernel[0] <Debug>: Wake reason: XHC1

Feb 22 02:48:47 MBP kernel[0] <Debug>: Wake reason: ?
Feb 22 02:49:49 MBP kernel[0] <Debug>: Wake reason: ?
Feb 22 02:50:53 MBP kernel[0] <Debug>: Wake reason: ?

Wake for network access and time machine are both turned off while on battery.

The only thing that's changed recently about my setup is that i added a time machine to the network about 2 weeks ago, but it was fine for the first week and a half

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers

Edit: after doing some more digging around it seems it could well be down to the time machine or bonjour service... Will update if i manage to get rid of it
