Crazy battery drain matebook 13

[Edoardo001]

I have a matebook 13 i7 with only integrated graphics uhd 620 wishkey lake.
I don't know why but battery last less than half compared to windows 10.
What can I do? I've seen Rehabman guide but it says that from Haswell we don't need to do nothing because is included with a config.plist that I can't find...
I will be grateful for all suggestions

@Edoardo001,

Unfortunately it's quite normal for laptop hackintosh systems to have around half the battery run time when running MacOS compared to when running windows.

The primary reason is that the hardware and drivers are optimised for the Windows Power Management features.
As long as you have implemented Native CPU Power Management in MacOS there is not much else you can do.

[Guide] Native Power Management for Laptops

Overview Power Management should be one of the first things implemented when trying to install OS X on a laptop. Because of heat/noise and battery life issues, using NullCPUPowerManagement is not a realistic option on a laptop. Fortunately, with Clover, NullCPUPowerManagement is never needed...

I get around 6 hours run time in MacOS on my HP Spectre X360 Laptop compared to around 10+ hours when running windows 10.

Cheers
Jay

plugintype=true is already enabled in your config.plist already

you can pop these in terminal:

sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
sudo pmset -a standby 0
sudo pmset -a autopoweroff 0
sudo rm /var/vm/sleepimage
sudo mkdir /var/vm/sleepimage

remove DSDT copia from patched folder, that folder is not a dumping ground for random files

edit:

Use this to make sure your kexts are up to date:

profdrluigi / kextupdater / Downloads — Bitbucket

bitbucket.org

It's not a random file. I've done a modify in ssdt and I saved a copy until I end my test.
Done already this command. Nothing much to do?

not sure if you saw my edit but check for kext updates

you can also try something like this:

GitHub - stevezhengshiqi/one-key-cpufriend: Generate customized CPUFriendDataProvider.kext for dynamic macOS CPU power management

Generate customized CPUFriendDataProvider.kext for dynamic macOS CPU power management - stevezhengshiqi/one-key-cpufriend

Will try this. Of course, I update the kext every one week
