Battery consumption great!
Yesterday before went to bed it was 11% and I left jolla without charging over night because I want to empty battery to 0.
In the morning still 9% !!!
WOW

I can also confirm that once NFC has been turned off overnight discharge rate has dropped from approx. 20% to approx. 2% .

Well worth doing as it prevents unnecessary accidental deep discharge of the battery and so will considerably extend its serviceable life. Lithium cells have a short life if contiguously subjected to deep discharge. Try not to discharge below 70% of capacity.

How can you turn off NFC? This means no need to mask tohd service?

Sorry I meant stop the service - "mask" to prevent restart on reboot then stop it.

Check running status before and after with:

ps aux|grep tohd

The below commands issed as root worked for me:

systemctl mask tohd.service
systemctl stop tohd.service

Restart it with:

systemctl unmask tohd.service
systemctl start tohd.service

After 48Hrs light use battery at 80% so a definite improvement.

Once I get a spare OTH I can cut a slot in it and use a jumper cable to take the battery outside the case where meaningful current and voltage readings can be obtained and logged over time

I was the one reporting battery consumption with Mitakuuluu running a couple of days ago, but I already disabled tohd.service long, long before that. In fact, I also tried to re-disable it before reporting (that's the first cause for the battery drain I thought of), and it didn't work, so I supposed it could be a regression in the latest version of Mitakuuluu (a thing that coderus excluded with stinging sarcasm, so I deleted my hypotesis and subsequent irritated answer when my mind colded down ).
But I'm still experiencing an occasional, strange, erratic, difficult to reproduce battery drain I can't still find the cause of, because usually rebooting fixes it.
For example, today I had my usual setup running (Mitakuuluu, mail app and settings app running, nothing else open, wifi and 3g enabled) and started to notice my battery going down rapidly (from 100% to 93% in less than 2 hours spent mostly with the phone just in standby, that's very fast for my usage experience).
I rebooted the phone, and consumption got back to normal.
The first time I had ~50% of battery drain overnight, while usually it is less than 10% (always with the same set of apps running and the same internet settings), and a reboot also fixed it. Still don't understand what triggers it though (I'm done with hypotesis and bug reporting, I'll just wait the eventual fix).

@Watchmaker

The quick battery drain may be related to aliendalvik service if you have android compatibilty installed.

Type the folowing command in terminal to stop it:

systemctl stop aliendalvik.service

To restart it, just load an android app.

I did not experience such a drain with any build of Mitakuuluu. In fact, with or without this app, the idle battery consumption is very low : about 2 - 4 percentage points during the night.

I would say it's quite impressive, Wazzap for the N9 was not so efficient.
Beside showing the quality of Mitakuuluu, I think theses good results show mainly the quality of Sailfish: very efficient power management and sane way to connect to the internet.
