Strange behavior of the Battery chapter. Usage history

Hello everyone!

Macbook Air 2020

MacOS Big Sur 11.1

I did notice Strange behavior of the Battery chapter. Usage history.

The strange behavior is that for one or two days info graphics shows "Screen on usage" and sometimes it may not show at all. What is the reason I do not understand. Has anyone come across a similar one?

Incredible battery drain in new Ventura 13 After I updating my macOS from Monterey to Ventura I am struggling with an incredible battery drain in sleep mode. I've already tried to change many options and even closed all my apps before entering a sleep mode. What I noticed in Activity Monitor is the fact that both kernel_task and WindowServer use a lot of CPU % and make a lot of wake-ups, but I suppose it is ok. Do you have the same issue with a new system?

It’s reporting usage with the display open when running on battery. There is no ‘screen on usage’ when the Mac is plugged in and being used, nor when unplugged but sleeping.

The above looks like you used it on battery for a while, then closed the lid, then a few hours later plugged it in.
