I have Easy Battery Saver set to Intelligent (1.7 times battery life), have the screen set to the lowest setting, disabled Google Now, and I'm borderline OCD for closing open apps and clearing memory in RAM manager. Yet it still drains, I don't get it. I think I'm gonna have to buy a second battery to start carrying around.

Too bad, as aside from that I love this phone. I really hope battery technology catches up to phone technology one of these years, seems light years behind right now.
Try turning LTE off. My S3 was draining like crazy as well. I just use 4G now, which is plenty fast, and my battery lasts from the time I get up until I go to bed.
