I had a V1 that I bought in 2019, I had some issues but none about the battery. I decided to buy an Oled and I sold the V1, perfect state for all the use it had. Well, my Oled had all sorts of known issues, problem reading the SDcard, problems to charge the pro controller when the console was awake, and some others, I sorted all issues somehow.. but, last Thursday the battery started to drain, I saw when I woke it, for me it was due some kind of update... same thing on Friday... I decided to do the same I do with my tablet and phone, I was already aware about that title screen method but I decided to do in case of the failure of my method... I turned the console off, waited about 10 seconds, turned it on again and used it docked normaly. Saturday the battery was normal, Sunday as well. Today is Monday and the battery is also normal. I guess my method is also good.
EDIT: Too soon, today it was very drained. I'll try to official method.
EDIT2: After some months looks like the method really works, no battery draining so far.
