Hi everyone,

I have been experiencing some big issues with battery drain on my 2017 MBP (not one of the ones recalled under Apple's program). I have tried doing a complete reformat and reinstalling everything fresh, but this hasn't helped. I am getting about 5 hours battery out of it doing light web browsing/word processing/a bit of youtube but not much
