    Why is newly bought and updated Surface Pro 8 battery draining overnight?


    I put it to sleep and it was only 18 percent, but I notice that it drains my battery by quite a lot. I opened up my surface pro this morning and it was already out of battery, does anyone else have this issue and if so is there a way to resolve this? Is there a way to make sleep mode not to consume battery very much? It's ridiculous that battery gets consumed quite a lot during sleep mode and I looked up that this an ongoing issue.

    :)

    Battery drains on Surface Pro 4 overnight

    Hello,

    My battery completely drains overnight most of the times. I ran a tool to analyze what drains the battery but have no idea what to do next. Any help?

    The report is available here:

    Thanks!

    Why is newly bought and updated Surface Pro 8 battery draining overnight?

    Failing battery or draining issues?


    Bang! Problem solved! I also posted this in Neowin: Do I have a failing battery? Or is a program draining the heck out of it? - Surface Pro 3 - Hardware Hangout - Neowin Forums

    I was suggested to reinstall the drivers. Device Manager didn't expressed any anomalies, but reinstalling the drivers yielded outstanding results. The device now lasted 4 hours and 23 minutes. The last hour and 23 minute was with the device playing music in Media Player Classic with the display always-on at 100% brightness and the volume 80%.

    Thanks for everything *Biggrin *Biggrin *Biggrin
