Need help locating an app that is wasting my battery using gps?

Is anyone aware of an app that lets you know which apps or processes are running within the ram manager for task manager? Here is my situation. If I fully charge my phone at say midnight, and then unplug it and leave it on silent mode for the night, when I wake up around 8 my battery is usually around 60 percent. The pull down notification screen will say something like my gps had been active since 5 or 6 am.Task manager shows no running apps. But when I go into ram in task manager and click clear memory then the gps stops . Which app can I use to pinpoint exactly what is using my gps randomly? I don't like to leave my phone plugged in all night but have been forced to the past week or so. I also have uninstalled 3 apps that were installed within that time frame and I am still getting the gps problem. any help is greatly appreciated.
