I took it out last night, charged it up to 100%. Wrote a small asm program to perform endless looping. Then run the program five times in the background. (i.e. the PBP has 6 cores, I'm pushing it to 5 cores 100% load, overall 83% load on cpu)
After 3 hrs run with the A/C connected, the battery level drops to 89%.
Quote:Just wonder if PBP after 2020 went through any circuit changes.Yes, but specifically, it was in 2022. I have lost track of time: I'm not positive how long I've had this one; but I think it was the latest production run when this change happened. The main board must have been completely redesigned. The only differences I am certain of though, are much, much better battery life and charging (most likely due to better cooling charactaristics), and different switches and switch placement. The switch to disable the eMMC in my latest one is not the same as the Wiki picture, which does match the ones I got in 2020 and 2021.
BTW, kudos on sticking with that Debian install. If I weren't using NetBSD, I'd still be using it; I much prefer it over Manjaru.
