Hi gang,
A battery question:
Do you think it is normal for a new i7 11" MBA to drain from 60% to 51% battery power while in sleep mode for about 10 hours?
I'm thinking that if the beastie is supposed to be able to sit on a shelf for 30 days and still be running losing nearly 10% battery for every 10 hours, its not going to last.
Some notes:
- Prior to this sleep period is was setup to work with an external monitor and bluetooth keyboard/trackpad. It was unplugged from the monitor (as well as power) but bluetooth and wifi were still 'on'. Would that affect the power drain? Always assumed radios turn off when the device goes to sleep.
- Checked the system log, no activity logged during the 10 hour period.
I'm wondering if I should take this to a genius or not. Any thoughts would be welcome.
Cheers!
