Wakelocks?

I've been especially pleased with the battery life on my V40, untill recently.
Battery stats indicate that "Held Awake" percentages are increasing.
No new apps recently to explain the increase in wakelocks either.

What do I look for to find out what's happening. I had thought I had my settings right.

Did I miss something?

I can't find a "Held Awake" number anywhere. Can you tell me where to look?

Dropped 34% in 9 hours last night.
I've made no changes and no new apps.
Gotta get ahead of this. Normal consumption is around 5% overnight.

If you suspect you have a wake lock, connect your device to a pc and fire up a terminal and run these commands...
Bash:
adb devices
adb shell dumpsys power | grep -i wake_lock
Post the output here wrapped in code tags.

The first command is just to determine if your phone is recognized by ADB. The second command does all the magic.

If there's any active wake locks, this will catch them. If the wake locks are not active at the time of running the command, then it will not catch them.
