Default Battery dead

Hi folks,the battery on my saph keeps draining overnight,took it out last week,charged it for 48 hrs,kept the battery off the car and checked voltage every 3-4 hrs,over 3 days it only dropped 0.6v from complete charge sitting at 12.91 for this time.
Put it back in the car on saturday,ran around in it on sat and sun,no problems,charging at 13.6v,went out to it today at 13:00,dead as a dodo.
I have checked the boot light,glove box light as I know this used to be common fault area's,all ok.
Looking for any other suggestions as to common places to start looking.

The car has cat 1,tracker and some amps but even with these it shouldnt be draining the battery overnight should it

Any help appreciated
David
