I received my PPPEE yesterday, and am also having issues, though they seem more related to charging than discharging.
When attached to the keyboard case, I know I have good pogo contact because the keyboard can type on the device, but it will not charge from it. I know it the keyboard charging is 'on' because I can trigger the PPPEE to boot by pressing the keyboard power button, but after that the PPPEE battery will continuously drain.
I know it is not an issue with the keyboard device itself because the keyboard charging behaves as expected with the PPCE.
I tried swapping the batteries between the PPPEE and PPCE with no change in behavior.
Also, there is an issue where the phone cannot charge while powered is off. If power is supplied to the device and then a shutdown command is issued, as soon as shutdown completes it will boot again. This means it cannot be left in a 'trickle charge' state from a low-amp charger.
Perhaps the most troubling is that the device does not seem able to determine its power state. I have Manjaro Plasma on EMMC, and Manjaro Phosh on SD card. When booting to Plasma, the status tray icon for the battery contains the charging symbol at all times whether power is supplied or not.
In Phosh, regardless of whether power is being supplied to the device or not, the Powersupply app shows:
battery: Capacity 0%; Voltage 0; Status Discharging; Health Good; Temperature N/A
USB: Charger not connected; Voltage 0V; Current limit 0A
Type-c: Type-C revision N/A; PD revision N/A; Power role N/A; Data role N/A; Operation mode N/A
I'm starting to worry I have a defective unit, but I'm not sure if the issues with Powersupply are generalized to all PPPEEs, or specific to my device. Can anyone confirm if Powersupply works or doesn't work for them on PPPEE?
Is there a version of Powersupply, or an equivalent app that is available in Plasma?
Thanks!
EDIT: version info

KDE Plasma version: 5.23.5
KDE framework Version: 5.90.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Kernel version: 5.16.2-2-2-MANJARO-ARM

I don't know how to check the version. All it says under 'Settings > About' is: Gnome version 41.3
