As it's such a big change in battery performance I was now assuming it was a h/ware issue and getting ready to open my Glo and replace the battery but seeing your post I'm gonna revert back to 3.8.0 and see if that helps. Will report back in a couple of days & keep fingers crossed.
Bad news - after downgrading to 3.8 the battery drain is still horrible, after 24 hours down to 76%. So it looks like the firmware is not the culprit.

Time to crack open the Glo.
