Why do Macbook Pro's Drain Battery While "Sleeping"?

[SiegDuPreez]

Me too. Thanks for your help.

Larry, I noticed in my log that it sleeps for the time specified by standbydelaylow. As soon as it tries to go into standby mode, it fails for a reason still not known to me. But, I thought of disabling standby to see what happens. After 24 hours it wakes up with a 16% drop. Much, much better than before.

Now I need to find out why it doesn't go into standby mode.

I am sorry that didn't work for you! I wish that had worked for you, as I know it definitely worked for me..

Last night I turned off my computer at 100% at 12:30 AM, and I just started using it right now at 9:55 AM and it is at 100% still. Something definitely sounds up with your computer (although I am guessing you already know this, lol). Sucks to have a quirk like that that you can't really get fixed it seems.

Do you mind showing us your power settings and log of the 12:30 to 9:55 sleep, please?

To get the battery settings, unplug the power and do a "sudo pmset -g" in a terminal window.
To get the log, do a "sudo pmset -g log" and find the entries between the start and end time.

Joining this thread, unfortunately. My old MacBook Pro (2011 maybe?) would go for days on sleep and hardly lose anything. My lovely new MacBook loses too much—didn't use it all weekend and after 60 hrs unplugged it's at 40% charge. Yes, I expect to lose some over a weekend of no use, but not this... my MBP never did this.

Hoping we find a solution as obviously the CPU is doing something and requiring power, when actually, I want to shut the lid and kick everything to RAM with minimal power, that's it. I don't want internet connections or attempted connections.

Joining this thread as well as I have had the same problem with my 13 inch MacBook Air (2015) for at least a year now. I have tried every single trick in the book and nothing helps. I was hoping that Mojave would do the trick but it did not. My battery cycle count is very low (around 160) and my battery is normal. I have nothing enabled, bluetooth off, Find My Mac off, notifications off, Power Nap off, the list goes on and on. I have no devices attached to the computer or SD cards inserted. It will drop anywhere between 15-25% overnight. Nothing is waking my computer from sleep according to the activity monitor. The only thing I have installed on my computer is Bitdefender for Mac and MalwareBytes. I have tried turning off the wifi before putting it to sleep and that does not help.

I have pretty much gave up on it. There is nothing else that I can do. I have done everything that everyone has suggested on numerous sites and nothing works. I have read about so many other people with this issue that run out and get new batteries only to have the same thing happen. This is my first Macbook and it has really turned me off of them because my computer has to constantly be turned on and off. That is the only solution that I have found--turn it off when finished using it. I really hate doing that and that defeats the purpose of it but what else can I do? It will be completely dead in a day if I don't do it.

Here you go, it looks like I incorrectly stated the unplug time by one hour. I unplugged the MacBook at 1:36AM at 100% charge, and slept it until 9:53AM when I woke it by opening the lid still with 100%.

Ben, thanks for that. I see a few differences with my settings. You're running Mojave too?

Your system goes directly to Deep Idle mode and remains in that mode till it is woken.
I don't see a proximitywake option. Even if I set it to 0, it is not shown.

I've set my battery settings to the same values as yours. Will let it sleep now and check tomorrow morning if there is an improvement.

I think proximitywake is related to "Find my Mac".

Yeah I am running Mojave on my machine (2017 MBP wTB).

And you know what, you are right, I did not have find my Mac on. I thought I turned it on when I did the fresh install of the MacOS, but apparently I didn't (it was a long week last week in my defense, lol). I just turned it on, and I'll report back in the morning on how the battery performance is with the Find My Mac on.

If Find My Mac causes that much battery loss overnight, I will have to debate if I want it turned on on my machine. I don't take it out very often, so I am not sure if the battery drain will be worth it or not (assuming that Find My Mac makes much difference).

This is mine - losing battery while sleeping probably faster than what it's turned on.

How did your computer fair this morning?

I just woke mine up and it still had 100%. I unplugged it at 11:43PM and woke it up this morning at 9:36AM. It dropped to 99% after about 10 minutes of use this morning, but even with Find My Mac on it seemed to hold the full 100% charge all night.

Ben, alas, the new settings didn't solve the issue. Went back to the old behaviour. The only decent solution at the moment is to disable dark wakes with "sudo pmset -b darkwakes 0". It remains in sleep mode which uses more power than standby mode, but it gives me more than 24 hours on a full charge.

It looks to me like once the standby delay has expired (@00:41:23) after the initial sleep (Clamshell sleep @22:41:18), it goes into standby. From thereon, it is woken every minute or so by a "EC.DarkPME/Maintenance" event.

Notice that the standby delay is set to 3 hours (10800 seconds), but it expired after 2 hours. I will investigate that. Will also try to figure out what causes the EC.DarkPME/Maintenance event. Perhaps it is also time based, but I don't see an option for that.

It seems that my Macbook pro sleep problems was because of proximitywake setting. I disabled it and now it seems to sleep normally. It still log in with Apple Watch and wakes up from Bluetooth devices as trackpad and keyboard

 

[IngerMan]

I disabled wake from Apple watch way back on my 2016/2017 MBP. I find it much smother and quicker using touch ID. I use the apple watch enabled for my 2015 iMac but it is not as smooth. Sometimes it delays. Several times it makes me type my password anyways on the iMac. Ive read enough threads about battery life in sleep with the Apple watch active, I don't know why you would have it enabled if you have touch ID. Touch ID is far better than Apple Watch.

 

[KrisseFI]

I hava a nTB version so i don’t have touch id. For me I prefer Apple Watch login vs. password because it’s quite fast. I still don’t quite understand what proximitywake does. I found this somewhere ”proximitywake - On supported systems, this option controls system wake from sleep based on proximity of devices using same iCloud id. (value = 0/1) ”
I have Watch, IPad and IPhone using same icloud and that woke up Macbook all the time. I found it observing logs.

On my 2017 iMac, when it wants the password when my Apple Watch should have unlocked it, I hit esc, wait not even a second, and wake it up again. It almost always unlocks that time.

I'm joining this thread because I have a 2018 15" MBP that's draining while "sleeping" and I'm looking for a solution. One thing I did discover that's interesting is that if I stay logged in, it usually drains "too much." However, when my wife's account stays logged in (and I'm logged out), the battery drain is as expected. So it's something in my account but I have not isolated it yet. I also don't know if it matters that mine is the admin account and her's isn't.

 

[OldMacUser]

Joining this thread too as I have been having excessive battery drain issues after updating to Mojave on a MacBook Pro Retina 13-in with Touch Bar. Last night I was at 100% at 10pm and it was down to 81% at 8am this morning.

I have been monitoring over the last few days and it consistently loses between 12-15% overnight, but last night was the worst.

What do you have set for notifications in systems? I have checked Do not disturb when display is sleeping and mirroring to TV

What do you have for Energy Saver? I have checked put hard disk to sleep when possible and slightly dim display. Not enable power nap.

Some screenshots to show 10% loss while sleeping.

Lost 10% between the time I put the laptop to sleep at 5pm and when lid was opened at 8am next morning. Also, puzzled as to why the laptop "woke up" at around 5:23am.

Hi guys,

I have been working on this issue, same here.
For example; last night battery level around %68. I opened the lid and I see is %12 left.
This issue was same in Mac OS High Sierra, So I decided to downgrade to Sierra last week. It was fine, there was only %3-4 drain during sleep mode.

But when I installed Mojave, same issue continue. Do I have to downgrade again?

And the saga takes a strange turn. Battery didn't drop at all last night.

Battery did drop by 10% in the first half-hour of usage, but I put that down to mail syncing and Chrome web browsing.

The only difference between this reading and previous:-
1. Microsoft pushed out an update for all their Office apps which I installed/updated/
2. I shut down all apps (so nothing active/running) before putting the laptop to sleep.

This issue has been driving me crazy as well. Some days my battery will drain within 24 hours when sleeping. I have since given up trying to resolve and just ended up disabling unlock with Apple watch, and battery drain is back to normal.

It's been up and down for me as well, alternating between 0% drops one one day and then between 6-8% drop on subsequent days.

Yeah I noticed a similar thing. Sierra was great. High Sierra very far from great. Mojave even worse.
I'm just not using sleep mode at the moment. Hopefully Apple find a way to make it work again.
