I turn off my phone at night to save on battery life.  But ever since I changed to this new mod, the battery seems to deplete even when shut down.  I'll turn off my phone with 70% battery remaining, and wake up with 50%.  Now, I can understand having some battery depleted, but 20% seems way too much.  Is there anything I can do to correct or improve this?

UPDATE: I wiped the battery stats, and tried to do some battery saving items, but there still seems to be excessive battery drain.  Most recently, after doing the previously mentioned wipe and adjustments, I turned it off at night at 73% and woke up to 61%.  So an improvement, but if it is shut off, there should not be any battery drain.  

This is on top of the fact that the battery is only lasting about a day, compared to 3 days on the stock system. I've been Looking at the battery usage info and the operating system seems to be using up a much higher percentage than my previous version.  So i may try to reduce the CPU usage to a lower setting, and some other battery saving items.  Although this should just extend my battery life, it still does not solve the issue of the battery mysteriously draining at night (or maybe it will?).  If anybody has input, please let me know.
