Battery Life

Your solid blue line is your WiFi. Try checking it with WiFi off and just running on the radios. I accidentally turned on WiFi and my battery went into a nose dive.

That's exactly what it was, thanks. So I wonder if it's a problem or not? Or if that's simply how it looks?
 
I don't think any of my previous motos did that (awake/blue) but I'm not a big WiFi fan when I'm unlimited. Typically when on WiFi I'm abusing the phone so it's awake. Going to run a test on my RAZR MAXX.

Total battery used divided by percent used by screen divided by time screen on equals percent used by screen per hour.
In the posts above it looks like 6.5 and 5.5%/hour of screen on time.
That's much better than my RAZR Maxx.
I wonder if screen on includes the active notifications screen time.
Another big consideration is brightness. Also what you're doing with the screen, watching video seems to use less battery per hour than say, browsing and playing games. Maybe the on and off uses more than constant on?
There are many variables it's really hard to compare even just looking at screen use.
The only way i can get screen on time like that is with brightness so low that this old fart can't see it.
GSam app will break down screen time by brightness as well as many other useful data points.
Thanks for this info, I'm leaning toward an upgrade to the Maxx.

My Maxx went down 12% with 1 hour of screen time.

How long does it take to charge this beast from 0 to fully charged with a moto wall charger?
Did a search but didn't see this info anywhere. I'm seriously considering this for my next phone.
