I believe 20171227 solved a big part of the battery issue (at least is looks like the CPU is now entering deep sleep mode). The battery chart is not always precise but maybe this is because I did not made a factory reset after the 20171227 OTA update.
I am not experiencing reboots. I had reboots when I was using the 20171011 version, but after I manage to fix the preloader and flash it to 20171114 and update via OTA to 20171227 the reboots were fixed.
I will double check the battery life tonight and will report tomorrow.
