I am using macbook pro 2015 with Monterey version 12.1. Almost every time when I open the screen and login in the usage of cpu surges more then 200%. It's even stranger because mac isn't connected to any device! To fix it I turn off and on the bluetooth, which doesn't seem a good solution to me. Is there any better ways to fix it?
One of the suggestions was to turn off bluetooth and then back on. While doing so, two old devices were listed, one of them said the connection was "rejected." Before turning off bluetooth, I removed both of those devices, effectively clearing the device list. Upon removing both, the CPU usage immediately dropped from 216% to 0% fixing the issue for me. I never turned off bluetooth and after 3 hours and one restart, the issue has not reappeared for me. Hope this helps someone!

I did the same and it seems to have solved the problem. Early days fingers crossed!
I have an issue with bluetoothd high CPU drain too. Just randomly appears, I don't know how to reproduce. It's all started after update to macOS Monterey.
MacBook Pro 13" 2015.
Thx man. I hope so
Guess what guys... I just got bluetoothd cpu usage over 200% with Monterey 12.3 installed. /c:
I just woke up my computer from sleep. I don't have any bluetooth units connected at the moment.
Unfortunately it is not; Updated to 12.3 and still same high cpu
Is there a way to officially create a ticket for Apple to fix this ?
Same problem here...newest Update had it not fixed.
The problem persists in Monterey 12.4. bluethoothd took 125% of the CPU and got my fan spinning like crazy. Apple needs to address this!
Confirming not fixed. 12.4 and just got a bluetooth 200%+ CPU usage. :(

Apple doesn't want to help us. I've reported the bug to Apple for a long time, but I haven't received any feedback to date. The error still exists and nothing changes.
