Charge 3 battery drains fast

[TMac82]

My Charge 3 is 6 mos old. Over the last two weeks the battery is suddenly draining rapidly, usually within 24 hours. I’ve checked all settings and have nothing set up that would drain the device. I’ve tried charging and the hard rebooting. Nothing seems to work. I even let it sit for 96 hours to fully drain the battery and tried again. The fist charge lasted 72 hours. But today’s charge is already down to 30% after 6 hours. 
lastly, while charging today the screen was flickering and rapidly changing displays. Sure seems like somethings gone haywire. 
Any advice or is this device toast?

Thanks for the info. I do have all optional items off or minimized but still battery drains quickly. Last two charges lasted 18 hours and 24 hours, and all it did was sit on my wrist. Now I can't even get the screen to display anything.

Any advice...?

@JuanJoFitbit, any suggestions on how to fix? Screen came back but now erratically keeping sleep score. Feels like a lemon.
