It would be better if you compared using the same "neutral" method. Most cheap power measurements tend to quite inaccurate and who knows in which direction this Windows power monitoring tool is wrong. It might be wrong in a different direction than what you used under Linux. A reasonable accurate method might be to just measure the time how long the battery lasts in both cases using a similar workload (e.g. keeping it completely idle) -Andi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
