Thanks. Please try installing 'powertop' and then run 'sudo powertop'.
You may find a reason for the high power consumption there.
Also, please try running regular 'top' and see if any process is using
high CPU.

Bug description:
Hi,
I am running Ubuntu on Thinkpad. I am facing battery back up issues on both
18.04 and 18.10 versions. Before that I was running Ubuntu 16.04 with a normal
back of almost 4 hours ( 2 Sony Batteries with normal back up of up to min of 6
hours on Linux Mint 19) and when upgrading to 18.04 it reduced to 3 hours max
on normal usage and less than 2 hours on heavy use.
I tried installing Unity session on 18.04/10, the back up increased. I think
it is Gnome doing the mess.
