When I tried stock Syncthing for Android it drained my battery very quickly. I use Syncthing-Fork which only checks for changes once an hour.
Can't you specify this with the normal app?
I would never use it in battery mode, only plugged in, that is how I have my Swiftbackup, Pocket Casts and Feeder downloads schedule.
I honestly don’t remember, I just googled “Syncthing drains battery” or something, someone recommended Fork, it worked.
