Help Battery issues

First off let me apologize for repeating a question from a few weeks ago. I can't locate my origin thread, even through search.

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING. Help me before I got crazy.


My Galaxy Note 3 with Lollipop 5.0 on Sprints network is draining insanely fast. At first I thought well the phone is old so maybe it needs a new battery. I buy one. Still drains. Today I do a complete factory restore and don't install a single app. I used the mobile site for Facebook. The battery is draining WORSE than before. From 5:45pm - 8:30 pm it drained to 30%. I only used FB Mobile and listened to music. Brightness all the way down. Sync, WiFi, GPS are all off.

What could be causing this? I'm at a loss.


My second question is what is/are the best extended batteries around? I am afraid to buy one because these phones are so brittle. That without an Otter Box I fear that it's only a matter of time before I drop it.


I'll take any and all advice(constructive of course) or troubleshooting guides.


Thank you all for reading.
