2.6.4 is draining the battery much faster

[dreimal8]

Hi,
I updated my RAK solar node to 2.6.4 - and than the battery was loosing voltage constatntly. With 2.5.20 the solar cell was able to load, even with cloudy sky. With 2.6.4 the battery is not loading even in good light conditions.

Second test was my seeed T1000-e.
After update to 2.4.6 the battery is going from 100% to 20% in 24h. With 2.5.20 the T1000-e was running 48h with a fresh loadet battery.

So i think something is eating up the battery with 2.6.4

It mentions in 2.6 update that there is a persistent information display on some of the inkHud devices. You could have this screen and it is constantly updating. It mentions that it is compatible with these devices.

The RAK and the T1000-e are without display.

I also did a test with a T-Beam and the Display worked as usual - going off after one minute.

What i figured out with the T-Beam connected to a ina219 to control the amount of energy: When searchin satelites after start it takes about 100mA.
With 2.5.20 its going down to about 50mA after finding satelites.
With 2.6.4 it stays on 100mA till i do a restart - only after restart it is going down to 50mA.

So i guess it coud be stuck in searching for satelites even if there were found some til a restart is performed.
