Is this discharge rate normal?

Member Posts: 17 Troubleshooter
Hey there,
i've got a Concept D7 and wonder if my discharge rate is in a normal range, since i would have expected a longer period of using it on battery.
it's always higher than 33.000 milliwatts, even if i close all apps and set the display to lowest brightness.
Closing Firewall and antivirus doesn't change anything.
I did also battery calibration and set the lowest levels in all energy plan options.

Any suggestions on how i could reduce the power consumtion any further?
Can anybody provide their discharge rate for comparison?
The tool i've used is found at https://www.nirsoft.net

    update:
    I tried several tweaks and it's quite better now.

    * disabled Intel Virtualisations in BIOS
    * Set "integrated" in the 3d-settings nvidia panel "Global"

    even with firewall and antivirus on my discharge rate is arround 9.000 mw now.
    I can live with it :)

    It's amazing how much difference a few tweaks like that can do.
