[SOLVED] Inconcistence battery capacity
I AM NOT NATIVE ENGLISH, TRANSLATED USED
Hello guys, i newbie. I fight problems about battery in my laptop. I was try search in internet why my battery drops so fast and powertop --calibrate dont solved. But look above
Battery 0: Discharging, 88%, 05:09:36 remaining
Battery 0: design capacity 4054 mAh, last full capacity 4054 mAh = 100%acpi -i information in BAT but:
Battery 0: Charging, 88%, 00:20:52 until charged
Battery 0: design capacity 3994 mAh, last full capacity 3994 mAh = 100%Same battery with different capacity and put same time a lot same thing:
Battery 0: Charging, 88%, 00:20:53 until charged
Battery 0: design capacity 3992 mAh, last full capacity 3992 mAh = 100%Battery 0: Charging, 87%, 00:20:53 until charged
Battery 0: design capacity 3991 mAh, last full capacity 3991 mAh = 100%Battery 0: Charging, 87%, 00:20:53 until charged
Battery 0: design capacity 3807 mAh, last full capacity 3807 mAh = 100%TLP status

Re: [SOLVED] Inconcistence battery capacity
Please use [code][/code] tags. Edit your post in this regard.
tail /sys/class/power_supply/BAT*/*Also please quantify "fast" - seconds, minutes or hours?
The shifting capacity suggests that the battery has seen its best days and is nowhere near holding its original design capacity.
Otherwise check "powertop" to see what's draining the most energy (and how much)

Re: [SOLVED] Inconcistence battery capacity
The battery has a design capacity of 49.59 Wh, at 10.2W discharge (browsing or with "heavy process"?) that gets you 4.86h runtime.
So no big surprises there.
When it comes to the discharge rate, those kernel threads (and likely the CPU) don't make the bulk of that - you want to check which devices (backlight, gpu, …) draw the most power.
What kind of battery time do you btw. expect from the advertised TDP?

EDIT: my battery charge much fast too, and drops fast in a compiler for exemple.
My real battery is 6000mah. i think that no make sense a 100% permanent quality and i dont understand why the batterry capacity increase in BAT and decrease in charge

Re: [SOLVED] Inconcistence battery capacity

No more.
The cycle count is "0", so either it was never supported or there's an issue w/ the battery self-report.
How old is that thing?

Re: [SOLVED] Inconcistence battery capacity
The wiki doesn't cover all sorts of hardware, the models listed are what users noted about their own experience w/ the hardware.
Check the battery w/ some live distro or windows, but I'm fairly sure it's just degrading.
You can try to completely discharge the battery, recharge full, discharge it, recharge it full and see where you land.

So, when my laptop is empty. Its wont boot, as any laptop. My first think had battery cant charge totally. Only a x value.
Nice. I should do this (discharge) in live system or in normal daily use?

Re: [SOLVED] Inconcistence battery capacity
It doesn't matter how you discharge it, you can unplug it and watch videos until the system powers down.
Doing so from a live system has the benefit of not resulting in an unclean shutdown, which could result in an inconsistent filesystem, but you can of course run it down to like 10% on your regular system and then drain the remainder from some live distro.
Then you plug the charger, wait a bit, boot the system and there wait until it's maybe 99% charged, from there discharge again as before, repeat the charge, remove the AC connection when you reach 99% or 100% (don't allow it to "overcharge") and see where your capacity is at.
Let the battery discharge to like 20% and the recharge it and see whether the behavior has returned to normal.
Be prepared that the capacity is most likely now (still) below 60Wh - batteries age.

Re: [SOLVED] Inconcistence battery capacity
Best! seth ur method was very efficient. Look
Battery 0: design capacity 4558 mAh, last full capacity 4558 mAh = 100 no changes in
tail /sys/class/power_supply/BAT*/* But i have strange situation
I wake up and my laptop now say a battery bigger that before but i havent charged and https://archlinux.org/packages/?name=sway drains my battery so fast. should i make a new topic about this.
NOTE: mpvpaper was used to in sway but its has low consumition

Please don't paraphrase, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855
Notably since
I AM NOT NATIVE ENGLISH, TRANSLATED USED
Btw: https://deepl.com/
sway drains my battery so fast
Is this according to powertop?
Please open a new thread for this, in doubt you're running on software emulation - so there add the outputs of
lspci -k
glxinfo -BOffline
