Weird battery drain on 2017 13" MBP

[chris4565]

Hey everyone,

So as the title says, I have some weird battery drain on my 2017 13" MacBook Pro. Basically, whenever I go to bed and put my MBP to sleep, it's dead in the next morning. The battery graph shows that (in most cases) this happens in 2 steps. Let's say, the MBP was put to sleep for 5 hours. Then, in the battery graph, I would typically see 2 "stages".

1. For about 2 hours, it drains about 10% per hour.
2. For the remaining 3 hours, it drains about 20% per hour.

It's really weird. The battery graph is no help because unless iOS, macOS doesn't show what's exactly draining the battery.

I already reset the SMC but this didn't help and when I look online, it seems like everyone suggests something different. So I'll try my luck here. Could anyone help me? Thanks in advance!

Not stated which version of macOS installed but you can try Sleep Aid to perhaps help determine why MBP perhaps really not sleeping.
