Sorry guys.. seems to be a bit of repetition but there have been many issues with battery drain on the D500.

I'd like to ask one question to existing D500 users...

my body has been switched off for two days, but the main battery has gone from 87% to 85% and the MB-D17 has gone from 100% to 90%..

That's ok... it tells me it's being used..

bluetooth is off.

wi fi i cannot seem to switch off. i think that is the culprit but don't understand how to disable.

Any feedback is going to be welcome.

Make your life spectacular!

As Ricardo said, you need to turn airplane mode to on.
