Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but shutting the lid of my MBP is not a good idea if I'm not planning to use it soon. The battery will be dead in ~1 week. Granted, it doesn't stay put for a week very often so I mostly "do not think about it" either, but it does drain the battery.
- freehunter 8y agoDo you have Power Nap enabled? That feature lets the Mac turn back on every so often to check for updates and other stuff, and can be a pretty big drain on your battery. Otherwise, this is basically the difference between "sleep" and "hibernate". Hibernate shuts down and takes no power, sleep does require the computer stay powered on. When you close the lid of a Macbook, it sleeps, not hibernates.
