i am well aware of the procedure for locating parasitic drain (doors open, put car in sleep mode, connect an amp meter in series with the negative terminal of the battery, watch the amp draw and start pulling fuses until it drops)
i'm just wondering if there are some common culprits that can draw SO MUCH CURRENT that the battery goes from being fully charged by a trickle charger, to being unable to turn over the engine within 24 hours.....in the summertime. that's gotta be like, half an amp at least.
another bit of info is that some LED angel light bulbs are installed, but they dont seem to function. instead of turning on the angel eyes the car uses the low beams + turn signal lights as running lights which indicated it's aware that the angel eye bulbs are not functioning.........could those be the cause of the current draw? what fuse do they use?

Very severe parasitic drain, full charge to no-start in under 24 hours?
