If this is a general issue, is there a way to reduce this heavy battery use?
My phone uses more battery, too, but not up to the point where I'd call it drain. I think I lose about 5-10% per day and I'm perfectly fine with this. It's not better on Android with the native app.

My use case: I leave home at about 8 o'clock in the morning, listen to Internet radio over 3G with bluetooth headset for almost 2 hours (1:50) daily, surfing the web and mailing for maybe 35-45 minutes a day and I return home with ~50% at 19 o'clock. Pebble is connected 24/7. So I don't think I can't complain about battery drain.

Do you use many Android apps?

Edit: I forgot: browsing feedly and Twitter at breakfast for about 20 mins each day
