iPod touch Touch Battery Issue

[ahaley1986]

I charged my ipod 3 days ago and went to use it today and it was almost completely dead. This is the second or third time this has happened. I don't shut my ipod down completely, so I was wondering if there are services that could still be running in the hold mode that could drain the battery or if my battery is bad and should bring it to apple. let me know!

When you say you don't shut it down completely, do you mean you put it in sleep mode?

The last firmware had issues like this for some people but the latest firmware fixed it.

As long as I'm not hitting the wifi, my lasts about as long whether its sleeping or completely shut off. Wifi sucks the life out of you.

I usually leave it in sleep mode and that is when the battery drain has been happening. Wifi is also enabled so I am kind of starting to think that could be the problem.
