I'm considering a downgrade to Yosemite. Either that, or completely wiping it clean and doing a clean install. But I have read some reports online that some people are experiencing the reduced battery life even after a clean install.
Has anyone else noticed the poor battery performance since upgrading?

To be honest I'm about 12-16 hours on El Capitan vs 10-14 previously so I would say battery is better now. My only real complaint is that I have safari lock ups every few days that require a force stop.
