I had this same issue for about a week after I installed the OTA, not sure what was going on, extra optimization or something, I left my phone plugged in mostly after that for about 2 weeks and then it finally settled down and I got my normal 2-3 days out of a change again.
But yeah most people here are gona tell you to grab root and run a custom rom to help with battery life.

At first I was on his "stock rom" and I liked it a lot, then I installed his Nusense Max 1.6 rom(I forgot to mention it in my previous post), which totally blew me away in the battery life department .

Best ROM for battery life?

Well Ive been running CleanROM DE for a while now and I like it. Problem is the battery life is terrible for me. I've tried everything and I just cant improve it. I get about a 10 percent drop in an hour with light to medium usage. If the screen is on I can literally watch he bar drop.
what other ROMs can I try that seem to have good battery life?
Either of Chingys roms.

Definitely. I used ineffabilis gb and I got awesome life. Throw in v6 supercharger or turbo prop and you'll be awesome
Agreed, I get amazing battery life on ineffabilis deus with the latest ics firmware.

+1 Chingy's roms.
I know the hardware varies slightly on each individual phone, but I'm getting the best on either Ineffibilis ROM, and also the last couple of Joelz BAMF roms.
how does chingy roms compare to clean rom dev in terms of battery life?
Are the ineffabilis GB ROMs? Im on the ICS firmware?

Thanks had a feeling that was.
I get fairly good life on newts one xxx rls. I got about 10 hrs today while streaming over 4g, texting, 2 calls and some Facebook. I'm sure I can get better battery life after I get over the excitement of sense 4
I have CleanROM DE 1.4 and it's the best battery life I've had, which leads me to believe you should be looking more for a different kernel. I've tried upwards to 10 different ROMs. I'm using the 3.13xx kernel he posted in Post #2 of that ROM thread.
Also, just a note, upgrading the firmware helped tremendously. Not just using the patch, but taking the dive and flashing the RUU. My phone got better with both battery life and heat.

Yeah I can get anywhere near that, just texting will drop it to 50ish percent by 2 or 3.

Have you tried recalibrating the battery? It sounds like you have a bad battery or something.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA
Calibrate the battery how? by running it all the way down and recharging it? Yet that happens a lot actually lol
Is there something that can check the health of the battery? what MAH is left and things like that

Battery Monitor Pro is great. Even logs all that data and has nice graph. It also allows you to swap batteries and also the battery data with it so each spare battery you have is correctly calibrated.

I hope you don't mean recalibrating by clearing battery stats in recovery, cause that does absolutely nothing for battery life.

Battery life on ROMs is a tough variable. Having hung around these forums for a really long time I can tell you that you will see huge swings in reeactions to battery life, often on the same ROM. There are so many things that can influence battery life that it really is a YMMV thing. you might be able to get some general trends from reading ROM threads, but there is no such thing as "gospel truth". some genral thoughts
1. Push email and facebook chew through battery
2. The accepted consensus is that battery saver prgrams like juice defender can eat as much battery ormore than they save but if you have a specific use case they may work.
3. you can spend your whole day chasing wakelocks...
All ROMs generally have about the same battery life. Battery is all about how you use your phone and how you manage what is running in the background.

Obviously everyone's mileage will vary, but of every ROM I've tried I've seen the best battery out of the Sentinel sense based ROM over in the international one development section. Yes it and basically every other ROM over there is compatible with the att variant

I have tried Sense 5.0, the Google Play Edition ROM and two CM nightly, the most recent one being July 5.
Both the GE and CM handily beat the stock Sense ROM in battery life (at least that was my perception).
CM 10.1 seemed to be a bit better than the Google Edition ROM (it also seems to be significantly more efficient in its use of resources which translates into better battery life), but there are still some issues with CM...NFC, Bluetooth, no Beats Audio Drivers, and I like the new Jelly Bean Camera App better so I am sticking with the GE ROM for the time being.
I love CM though and will probably go back to it once everything gets ironed out...
OK so I too have been questioning battery life. CM 11 did... OK. My previous phone was the Moto G, and comparatively my One has been doing terrible on battery life! I'm currently on Pacrom, tried PA and a couple similar as well, getting 9 hr battery life, 2 hr on (like what the f***!) according to GSam. I'm thinking about stock gpe and playing with kernels? Thoughts? Testing has been taking a while as I try to give every rom kernel combo 3 days at least, a week preferred.

A some what general consensus of Battery life for the One:
Sense > Google Edition > AOSP
In my opinion the best battery life will come from a fairly close to stock sense Rom such as MaximusHD with poondog's Kangaroo Kernel.

I would really like you to come inside my "comparative battery" thread, and post your GSam results. I would like to dissect exactly why you get such screen times. It will be very easy to see if the ROM is responsible, or something else.

No, with wootevers kernel. Didn't change much with brightness and such, on 3G 80% of the time. Using the Faux123-app with over/underclocking is recommended for this kind of batterylife

I'm using milestone on my ls980. Mine varies between 3 hrs and 5 hrs screen on, on any ROM. 15 and 20 hrs on battery. I think you need to check wake locks and or Clean flash.
May sound like a noob question but what are wake locks? I think I have a pretty good idea but I wasn't too be sure I just Flashed Mahdi ROM so I'll see if anything changes I'll post picks at 10-15% (if I remember)

I would flash one of @Cloudyfa roms. thaats if you want to stick a lg based rom if not then go with CM or Mahdi rom. they will give you awesome battery. I got 30 hours with CM but it was the stable 4.3 release ill charge my phone every day and a half. it was amazing..
