I'm not convinced that either estimate is accurate. To validate that the measurements are real they should actually run the tasks for a significant amount of time and see how much battery is used.
- astrange 5y agopowermetrics is not an estimate. Of course some other things on the system may change behavior if it’s not plugged in.
- ars 5y agoI agree - this appears to be very sensitive to the polling resolution. If you only run a task for 0.5 seconds, and you only check power usage every 0.25 seconds, you'll get an artificially high value. They need to run this for much longer, and with no breaks (moments of low power usage).
