I would recommend attempting to minimize CPU usage (as CPU usage usually computes to power usage) You should also check your GPU, as if you have 2 (a non-graphics intense and a graphics intense), then the graphics intense one would likely draw more power.
With your story, its likely a usage thing, with the parts not a problem. Though, just in case, I would check out the parts in your laptop, seeing what might be some high-powered parts if you can't get CPU usage lowered. > On Sep 12, 2022, at 11:10 AM, Guillermo García > <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hello guys, > > I bought a laptop and i got like 4 hours of batter life, everything ok, > (using more than 1 vm, etc), however now in idle my laptop has only 1 hour of > life, which is really annoying because its a brand new laptop bought one year > before. > > Here is my upower -d in case its necessary: [...] > > I hope someone can help me, i don't like to plug my pc into the power but i > need to do it in order to follow my class. > >
