Thanks trocchietto and Jmirko for the battery help. Just reporting further my Wakelock Detector Lite results, which turned up something that might have affected battery life.

I have a Sony file manager app installed (because it's the best for working with a Sony micro-USB drive I occasionally use). Over a period of about 30% battery use, it had almost 30,000 wake-up triggers (the next nearest, Google Services, had 356). It was due to an app setting to have the app "automatically started when Sony SA series USB flash drive is inserted." I turned off that setting, and hopefully will see improved battery life.

Thanks again.
