Battery life

I just got a brand new Macbook Air three days ago and I have noticed that it drains battery very quickly. I went to bed last night with it 75% charged and this morning it was at 8%. Ive also checked the battery life and it says that the battery life is normal. I am not sure if this is normal for a macbook to run out of battery so quickly but I feel like that can't be right. I also have noticed that it sometimes will start to "breathe" very loudly. Anyone know a solution, or should I bring it in for repair?

Hello,


May be you have many apps running at the night?

Anyway, try to start Activity Monitor app and look at the Energy Impact tab.

You will get more info about why your battery drains very quickly.
