Astro Saber Question

Hello gents, I have an Astro Saber III that seems to drain the batteries way too fast. In my experience Astro Sabers drain batteries much faster than regular Sabers (I am talking about with the radio OFF). This one will drain a new battery (fully charged) in 7-10 days. Is this normal? This particular one has the following flash code: 599008-4F1E00-2.

Is this a 'Nick' Radio? I looked up the 'Nick' flash codes but they are a bit different.

Any help would be appreciated.

How good is your battery? I have some that if you charge, they will work as good as a new battery, but if you let them sit a week, they will be dead. That's not a Nick f/c. His was 591008-4F1E00-9.
