Help Unusual battery drain

Last two days my battery has been draining like crazy and my phone won't go into sleep mode. I charge before I go to sleep and take it off when it's done and it will die before I wake up in about 8 hours .
Use to be at like 97 or 95 when I get up
I've gotten pretty good at managing my battery life , I use superpower and juiceplotter to monitor it .normally I waist less than 1% an hour when not in use and the phone is asleep
I've deleted every app I've installed since 1 day before this started.
Only thing unusual I see in my logs is this message (Adding Alarm{464294e8 type 2 com.android.phone })

and this

Alarm triggering: Alarm{46354990 type 2 com.google.android.location}
Adding Alarm{465bbb80 type 2 com.google.android.location } non stop repeatedly every second when phone is not in use

Someone please help
 
a quick search yields a bunch of information regarding google maps and com.google.android.location

nothing exactly along those lines but it may be something in maps acting haywire

and I found another weird instance of memory leakage when adding 100+ contacts but that was back in July

are you rooted? maybe switch to your last known good nandroid

Reboot seems too help temporally. Last night I messed with g maps and navigation uninstalled reinstalled g maps update and disable superpower for a good while incase google needed to access my device for some reason , hadn't thought about latitude never used it and its hidden from my app drawer , I'll check it out .
last night things were normal again don't know if this issue resolved itself hope it doesn't come back. Seems to have started on the night of the ninth went away came back on twelfth , only thing I did that night was purchase power amp key thought in could have been google trying to verify my copy ,I read about people complaining that the dev had some kind of verification built in that required data access

Thank you guys, no ones even touched this topic over at xda

Thought the thread was dead so I started using it to learn how to post pictures on forums , didn't wanna it to appear I was bumping my thread either .
as far as my problem goes it hadn't poked its ugly head since my reset .
google maps has updated since to , keeping my fingers crossed
Thank you very much to all that have chimed in
