There my be an issue with your unit or power supply.
I ran a stress test on mine using kernel compilation -j1 thru -j6 WITH an external USB 3.0 hard drive attached. The standard DC power supply provided with the unit was used. I am running the factory installed Debian desktop on eMMC. I measured voltage_now throughout each test.
The results of my test did not confirm what you are seeing with your unit. I did not observe the battery discharge issue you described.
You may want to open a support ticket.
Both power supplies? I had this problem with both 3A and 4A units. Although, I haven't had a chance to test the 4A unit thoroughly. I'm stuck with my PBP being unable to boot. Still struggling to figure out why. It doesn't work with Manjaro kernel anymore, for whatever reason.
Since you said you didn't observe this problem with Debian, it could probably be the mainline kernel issue. I haven't tested it in Debian, honestly. I should be able to provide more info once I've made it bootable again.
