Do you have 5G enabled on both & is the signal weak on one?
I have two eSIMs running 90% of the time, and it's a slight decrease in battery but nothing major.

This is how I use dual sim. Disable Wi-Fi calling on the main line. Enable wifi calling on the secondary line. In the secondary line, disable automatic network selection then choose a different network type, example for T-Mobile choose Sprint. Now you will be able to use wifi calling with the version data. This should reduce battery drain a little bit because everything is being channeled through one sim. I think anyway.
I have dual esim on my 13 PM - didn’t notice a difference when I turned it on - I still get crazy good battery life on it (using about 25-30% a day but I am a light user).
I have Verizon and Mint (T-Mobile).

Dont do it just wait for IPhone 15ultra we’ll worth the weightThat’s really sad to hear.I was going to trade in my 13PM for a 14 Pro.
Hopefully 15 will have much better battery life. That’s one thing I think I’d really hate to lose (battery life).
Im also using 2 esim 1 line with data 5G and the other with Voice and text just like you. I’ve seen a difference in battery life which is totally normal because now the phone is hanging to 2 cell signal at the same time. This will result in a increase in battery usage. It’s not that significant, but yes you will have less battery st the end of the day.
Even with data turned on with both line, the phone can only use one data connection at a time.
