When I shutdown Pavilion, the battery is constantly draining. I tried to change the settings in Power Options, but nothing. I updated all the drivers and nothing happens. 

 

Specification:

HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-ec0xxx

Windows 10 Pro 64-bit Ver: 19043.1023

AMD Ryzen 5 3550H with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650

Hi:

 

The only suggestion I can offer would be to turn off the Fast Startup option in the power options menu.

 

Turn On or Off Fast Startup in Windows 10 | Tutorials (tenforums.com)

 

When fast startup is enabled, the notebook is in a hibernate-type mode, and battery power is used to preserve the settings.

Sorry that didn't help.

 

Unfortunately, I don't have any other suggestions for you and wouldn't know why you are having a large drain on the battery.


With the notebook fully shut down and fast startup turned off, the only thing that the battery would be used for is to maintain the date/time, and if you had changed any BIOS settings, it would be maintaining those settings too.

 

I would think that there should no be more than a 1% - 3% drain on the battery overnight.

Thank you very much.
The battery was not draining even one percentage, on my two old laptops when it was turned off. is it normal today, to battery draining even 1-3% overnight (when it shut down)?

Yes, on today's notebooks, I believe that is pretty normal.

 

You can also try some of the things mentioned in this article to see if you can reduce the amount of battery drain even more.
