Hey All,
I believe I've experienced a weird battery loss issue, and I'm curious if others have ran into it or if it was some fluke. As I write this it is 1154am, just for context with the following info. I took my 2014 MBA w/ 10.14 public beta build 18A314k on it, off the charger at 930am, so just under 2.5 hours ago. I left my apartment, took a bus to where I'm at now, and took it out of my bag and began working. Maybe a half hour in or so, possibly less actually, I noticed my battery was already down to 83%, that is what I'm writing about, the 17% dip from doing nothing. It was taken off the charger w/green LED, so fully charged, put into my bag and not used for the next 30 mins or so, taken out, began usage, and within 30 minutes I noticed that massive drop.
I'm sure you're wondering what I did in my 30 or so minutes of usage w/the laptop once I took it out of the bag: purely internet browsing (no videos or YT etc. ), email and back to some internet browsing; I'm certainly perplexed. I'll post a pic of my current energy portion of the activity monitor below, now of course its dropped even more which is totally fine as I've been using it a bit for continuous browsing.
So to summarize my rambling:
taken off charger, 100%, at 930am
in bag, presumably asleep 930-1005
taken out of bag at apx. 1005
used for ~30 mins, light web usage
noticed battery dropped to 83%
