It depends on which processes you have running before putting the mac to sleep, sometimes I get no battery drain, other times I get 15%, it's not related to Al Dente

I thought so, but the the weird thing is, before i installed it, while it sleeps overnight barely loss 1% from current charge. With the almost the same multi tasks running before it sleep..

Hi ryansyrl, do you still experience a higher battery drain while sleeping? We have just released a new version of AlDente, maybe this one works better for you.

Well for me I lose 15% per night. I have installed the 24 Mar release version on my MBP late 2013 running bigSur. Does anyone has the same issue?

It's hard to discharge 40% in 1 hour even with heavy processes running, it
seems clear that your mac is not sleeping and its battery health is not
perfect.

Thats what i thought, it started to behave like that when i installed al dente, but it doesnt bother me. I will do more testing when i remove the app

I have the same issue with my M1 Pro mac. Looks like it could be affecting mac's ability to deep sleep. As you can see, I did not use my computer at all on that day and it drains super quickly.

I experienced the same problem with my MacBook Pro M1 2021, Sonoma 14.3.1; ~30pp drain per 24h in sleep mode until the battery was completely drained the second day sleeping with no screen usage.

AlDente enabled options: 'Stop charging when sleeping', 'Sailing Mode' (5%), 'Heat Protection', 'Updates', 'Launch at Login'
