Zenwatch battery drop

I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing this. If I have the screen on or off this seems to happen. The battery shows a normal show drain, then ask of a sudden plummets 50+% in a matter of an hour, then stabilized. Any thoughts or suggestions.
I always start at 97% not 100. Android 4.4.4 current android wear version.

Lollipop: Heart monitor coming on whenever. A source of battery drain?

Since my Lollipop upgrade, I have noticed I can turn the heart monitor LED (low power laser?) on by placing finger over it. When some sensor is covered, the light goes on. Screen on or off. S Health loaded or not. Doesn't matter.
This is a problem because it'll turn on while in my pocket or laying with its back on the table. My phone was very warm and showed significant battery drain when I checked after I left a theater the other night. I believe the light was probably on the whole time.
Anyone else notice this behavior? My Note 4 is Sprint Note 4 with no root.

That did it. Sucky bug since I use Google Fit as a companion to my Android Wear watch. Thank you very much for the help!
