Public bug reported: when I watch a video in fullscreen, my laptop can draw as many as 25w. For comparaison, on windows 11, a similar video will take only 8w from the battery. obviously, the cpu temps and fan speed are much higher on ubuntu tan on windows. Also, this might be unrelated, but when I plug in or unplug the charger on my laptop, the power draw reported takes time to climb up to the actual power draw/ charge rate ( up to 45 sec). In this vase, my laptop can think that it still has a couple of days left worth of battery life left
