Charge 6 sudden battery drain

I have been using my charge 6 for a month now, it's gr8 but all of a sudden I'm loosing 30+% of the battery a day. I have changed nothing in the settings, it's just started happening out of no where. Contacts are clean, charging rakes a little over an hour but battery won't last 2 days at the moment. What's happened, faulty firmware update?

Same - and it's only gotten worse. Resets/restarts not helpful. Extremely flaky behavior - not always just battery. Sometimes it goes completely unresponsive until I plug it back in, then claims to be 97% charged. Other times I'll take it off when it says full, then 20 minutes later it says it's at 15%. When it was working the Charge 6 was great. But it's been a huge disappointment. 18 months into having it, customer service offered a discount to buy a new one. Despite being a Google guy in general, won't ever buy Fit Bit again after that experience.
