S4 suddenly drains of power in 2 hours, any ideas?

Morning all. Advice please

My Samsung Galaxy S4 has (3 times in the last 3 weeks) gone from almost full power to nil in under 3 hours over night.

Having checked the battery usage chart, over 55% of usage is "Internet". However before I settle I close all of the tabs in Internet and clear cache and other privacy settings.

It doesn't look like the famed bulging battery issue. And more interestingly almost no data is being used. In the case of last night just 16mb which is fairly usual overnight. My broadband is BT Infinity 2.

Last Sunday was the last time it happened and I did a Factory Data Reset. It happened again last night. Software is up to date and no new apps have been installed.

Anyone got a crystal ball please?
