Please share your power consumption :)

#1 Post by TJMacGyver » Tue Jan 26, 2010 6:25 am

Hi
I think my X200 draws a bit more power on battery than it should be doing.
So i was thinking that if people share their power consumption, we could get some tips from the people hitting the lowest score :)

I don't think runtime and batterytype is relevant, as the time gauge is never precise :)
So would you please post the following (you're welcome to ad an attribute if I missed it :) )

OS: Windows 7 64bit clean install (tweaked services) (75 processes running, 4gb memory and no pagefile)
brightness: middle
usage: writing this, and outlook, with wifi, all else turned off.
power scheme: maximum battery
power consumption: ~13.6W

Is that level normal?
I have tweaked it quite a lot, turned of a lot of services, and I realy don't like to have the brightness that low.
When I turn up the brightness to full, and doing some web surfing in firefox it will consume ~14.5-17.3W

After turning off the WWAN card (F3507G) with AT command: AT+CFUN=0 I get about 1W lower power consumption, even though it's turned off in the fn+F5 menu.

All your power consumption numbers are absolutely and perfectly normal; noise is the only variance you'll see given the identical settings.
