So I've been having this problem lately, where my Macbook Pro (13 inch, 2017) just randomly goes to sleep on battery power. Then it will only wake up when I plug it back to the power adaptor. Anyone else experienced something similar and found the cause or solution?
 
And yes, Energy saver is off (Turn Off display is set to never), and all other options to turn off screen are not on.
 
Hello. Any solution here? I am having the same issue with my macbook pro 2017 since 3 weeks ago... When using battery my computer goes to sleep mode and only wake up when plugged in back to the power adaptor. Please help :(

Have you by any chance found a solution? I found a partial solution where I would restart the SMC. Basically shut down your Macbook, plug it in. Then press Shift + Control + Option + the power button. All those four buttons down for ten seconds, then let go. The Macbook will start up again. Then sometimes I can go without the charger but it still acts up from time to time.
