Isn’t that normal behaviour? Mine thinkpad T14 still has battery after a couple days sleeping.
- The_Colonel 4y agoUnfortunately, it's not normal these days. How old is your T14? It seems like it's becoming increasingly a problem for Thinkpads as well (e.g. https://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?t=134241 https://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?t=134241 )

- The_Colonel 4y agoI doubt MS is honestly trying to fix it, since it was MS who introduced Connected Standby as a replacement for S3 And I don't think it's just a software bug - many laptops now don't offer S3 at all, some only after toggling a BIOS option. Even then, it's often buggy on Linux as well.
- OJFord 4y ago> Microsoft is supposedly currently trying to fix it since LTT made a video about it Certainly not because, if that's the implication. Maybe since then in time.
- 411111111111111 4y agoWell, they said that a VP called LTT in response to their video, which is why I said supposedly. Original video: https://youtu.be/OHKKcd3sx2c https://youtu.be/OHKKcd3sx2c Follow-up: https://youtu.be/TXsw_92Y2e0 https://youtu.be/TXsw_92Y2e0
- gabrielgio 4y agoMine is T14 Gen1 AMD with Alpine on it so I'm off the hook as it seems.
- hookey 4y agoMy P14s Gen1 AMD (very similar to T14) with Debian still has this problem. 2 days unplugged will drain the whole battery and turn off. Maybe it's because I kept a Windows partition around?
- smasty 4y agoUpdating the BIOS via fwupd fixed it in my case, running Debian testing on a P14s Gen1 AMD.
