Hello Team,
I purchased the HP laptop 2 years back. I am regularly updating patches as recommended by the HP care. Recently I noticed some issue with the battery, even I put my laptop on sleep mode, the battery starts draining until I turn it off. I have seen it draining from 100% to 0% during sleep mode.
I wanted to know if this normal behaviour of the laptop or some problem with the Hardware.
Solved! Go to Solution.

@Nikhil27 If the device is put in sleep mode, it's still turned on and requires battery to run, which means it will drain the battery by default, that's how it works, however, its different if you've turned off the laptop and its draining the battery too quickly, that could be fixed via a few steps.
Please clarify, if I'm mistaken!
Do elaborate.
