Hello Mac users!

I recently picked up playing Diablo III again. Only played it on my m1 air 18 months ago or something. Always played it plugged in so I wasn’t bothered with battery life.

I played a couple of sessions “on the go” and found out my battery is draining fast. Around 2 hours of playtime and it is down to around 22%.

This is with full brightness, a BT mouse and BT headphones.

The temperature is around 70 C, and the fan is running average 4400 rpm.(macfancontrol).

Does this sound normal?

When I have a day at college or work remote on some assignments (multiple instances of word and safari with approximately 25 tabs) the battery holds out fine and I have round 40% left after a day of college.
