Verizon 8X Battery drain

I have been wondering if anyone has had a recent issue regarding battery drain. I don't have time to see if any apps have been causing it so I just wanted to ask here really fast.

Are you running Windows Phone 8 or Windows Phone 8.1 Preview on your 8X?

8 mate. No preview here.

I disabled all background tasks but I'm still seeing pretty significant battery drain.

-Turn off background Tasks you don't need ( be reminded Notifications won't work if you do so )
-Delete Skype. ( Don't disable it, f**** delete it )
-make sure your brightness on AUTO, or even better at low
-Location services OFF
-Email account syncing to manual or hourly for accounts that don't require immediate attention. Same goes for calendars.
-Go to your MS account, make sure no services have access to your account, such as twitter or Google.
-Battery saver.

That should do it.

Thanks but I ended up just resetting the phone. It was definitely the email accounts that I had set up. I switched them to fetch all mail instead of the last 2 weeks and then my battery started to suck.... hard.
