battery drain
Charge slowly vanishing
Battery drain is the depletion of stored power in a battery, especially faster than expected or desired.
The term applies most often to phones and laptops: My battery drain is terrible since the last update.
Apps running in the background, screen brightness, and poor signal can all cause battery drain.
The phrase emphasizes the unwanted loss rather than normal use.
