A comment on the problem "My iPhone battery drains too much overnight!" in Apple:

I'm wondering if it's due to a very weak ATT signal at my house. I'll try airplane mode first tonight to see if it happens again. – windborn, on October 14, 2008 13:18

I also have this issue except i don't have it plugged in overnight just asleep. No WiFi, no Bluetooth, fetch turned off, brightness set low and auto. I took it to the apple store who replaced my phone with a new one. After fully charging and restoring the phone. I found this one stone cold dead eight hours later. I'm wondering if it's one of or all of the third party apps. I put on the phone? Next I will try deleting them all and seeing what happens.

Also .. check your fetch / push settings on your iPhone they will drain power along with any blue tooth devices that your iPhone is keeping in contact with. The new Patch helped quiet a bit.

The latest software update helped me. A definite MUST download especially if you use "fetch" to gather information all the time. To do this upgrade you will also have to make sure you have the latest iTunes version as well.

Since the iPhone 2.1 software update that was released yesterday is in part meant to substantially improve battery life (among other lovely things like *much* faster backups), you might want to try it out and see if it makes a difference, especially if you combine it with the tips on the Apple battery section ohisee linked to above.

I just got the new iPhone a week ago. The battery drains very fast! I am charging twice a day!

I had the same problem and thought something must be running. I was messing around in settings and discovered the "fetch new data" setting. "Push" was on which I assumed meant the iphone checks for mail god knows how many times a day. I turned it off and set it to manual. I've had normal battery life since. I'm going to test setting it to check mail hourly. I would imagine hourly would be better than constant mail checking all day long.
