I’m surprised you haven’t gleaned this from the 3.06-beta announcement thread which started 6 days ago and has lots about this - in fact it seems to be the only complaint in that thread.
While I understand it’s frustrating to experience bugs and not always have an immediate fix, can the issue not be simply avoided by just shutting it down rather than sleep? At least until we can get a fix. I get it, should have a working product etc etc. I’m not disagreeing. But it seems like that would be a very easy work around without much effort. It only takes a matter of seconds to cold boot 
way rather do that and have a more efficient use of the psu than all the studders and such that were caused previously.
One more thought - you are using Arch w/Gnome right? Or was it KDE?
I am sure you have stated this, but life has been busy.
Before the MB reset fixed this for me, toggling from Performance (or balanced) to powersave and back also seemed to fix this for me without a reboot. After doing that, I could use any of the 3 without issues. YMMV.
I don’t remember what kernel you are on but w/Arch I am sure you are beyond the version that had power negation issues - so it is definitely strange that you are seeing this. My laptop has been in and out of sleep multiple times today w/o issue.
Do you have an expansion card available that you could try a fresh install of Ubuntu or Fedora as a dual boot and just see if its happening in another OS?
It is available in the US: 500W 6-Port USB-C Charging Hub - Up to 240W Per Device | UGREEN US Currently $200.

Where I live it’s 800$, a bit much, ain’t it?
CHICKEN BUTT
If you decide to ban me for that immature joke I understand. But I’m very happy with the GPU and 240W adapter.

I wonder what that FW 240W PSU can peak too?
If it can peak, even just for 1 ms, to 450W, then one will have full game play, without any battery use. It is those peak draw from the CPU/GPU that cause the battery to discharge for short periods. It will probably need an updated EC code to handle the peaks, but it could work.

Good luck even getting to 240w with it. In my limited testing, even the 180w psu doesn’t go past about 163w and I have never seen it “peek” higher. I’m only talking about into the machine, not what it pulls from the AC outlet.

Not currently possible, Framework EC restricts the current to 90% of the input current, which means your FL16 can only draw up to 4.5A from a 100/140/180/240W power adapter without modification.
I assume this should mean that the official FW 240W PSU shouldn’t have the issues you all have been finding in the Delta and UGreen ones right? Or have you also resolved those ones? (It’s a long thread)

I’m honestly wondering as a person interested in a 240w charger if i’m better off preordering the new charger from framework or getting the ugreen? I could make use of the extra ports on the ugreen but I’m more concerned with not having the battery drain while gaming. For people new here after the announcement. What exactly is going on with the ugreen charger and problems or studdering?

It’s likely it would have had the same issues. I think the only difference is that when the framework one releases the stable firmware will have the fix added to it. I’m testing the beta firmware to fix it and it works great with my Delta 240W charger!

I don’t have a ugreen charger, but since installing the beta firmware I’ve had no issues with stuttering using my delta 240W adapter.

Same here, with the ugreen 500w and the delta 240w

Since going to eGPU, I will likely stick with the 180w adapter as the eGPU has its own PSU. No need for extra power and seems to provide everything needed with what I have going on. Running RDR2 on ultra settings, the power/battery discharge never seems to dip and stays at 80% constantly.
Edit: 80% is the cap I set in BIOS…
