The battery completely drains in a day on my Leica T. This is a used unit that I acquired recently. The EVF and  the m-adapter T were both attached, and the camera went into standby mode. I had the same experience with two different fully charged batteries. Has anyone else experienced any similar problems?

Now,I make sure the power switch is on the off position.

One day on stand-by, without taking a picture seems to me not to bad.

I would not be concerned. However, I will check and keep the aluminium brick on stand-by tonight.

Did a walk today (3h) taking about 100 pictures - one bar was left on the battery fuel gauge.

Thanks for the replies. I grabbed my camera and went for a long walk yesterday without realizing that the battery that I had replaced the day before was completely drained. I am relieved to hear that the camera does not need to be sent in for service.

OK, relax.

However, I am looking forward what the battery drainage of my T will be tomorrow.

Keeping Wi-Fi switched-off may also assist in battery life.

After 22h on stand-by with the EVF attached, doing three photos and attached to the WLAN "two bars energy are left".

I have no idea if this is good or bad. I can live with it.
