[Q] Is this normal battery drain? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've never had a tablet before, and bought a used Nexus 7 2012 a few days ago. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I feel like the battery drains way faster than on my Nexus 5. After a few minutes of gaming I've lost quite a bit of battery.

Sounds right. Lower the screen brightness and it may help.
Games are killer for the battery on any device. Especially the 3d super detailed ones.

Inaccurate Battery

I've had my Razr M for about a year and a half, and pretty much no problems, but the last few weeks my battery has been all over the place. For example:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It's been doing this quite a bit, and that whole time it was at 1% I was using it normally. If I reboot the phone it usually drops about 20% of its battery, and then eventually gets to 1% and keeps working. I've tried a few random battery calibration apps from the Play Store but I don't think they did anything. Any ideas what's going on?

Post your amazing battery life!

I figured that we could share tips and screens of our excellent battery life.
I will start

My older phone didn't even last until the lunch break with this horrible signal (darn signal-proof building) much less 5 hours SOT.

Please post the Screen ON Time too.
Also, please note that if you have several apps installed with notifications turned on, they will consume battery in the background. Similarly free apps with adds also do the same.
It's been 5 nights and I complaim it drains 1% per hour.

It may also be that your battery is getting weaker.

Battery?

Good afternoon,
I changed the battery of my S4 with a new original, and the battery lasts 1 morning, using 4G most of the time, with heavy use.
Is it normal for 8H and until 14H have 5% battery with this whole use with a new battery? Or something goes wrong?
I point out that Avast Anti-Virus and Twilight run in the background.
Android 5.0
It's normal?
