Ubuntu 24.04.2 | Kernel 6.11.0-26-generic | BIOS : 0.0.3.9 | AMD Ryzen™ 7040 Series

Having issues with battery dying overnight. I used my laptop all day yesterday while on power, unplugged it, then manually clicked the power menu and clicked “Suspend”. It went from 100% to 83% overnight while doing nothing.

Why would it lose 17% power in 8 hours?

How do I fix this? I’m running stock everything, I haven’t tweaked anything, and I’m running latest firmware and keep Ubuntu updated to current.

I do not like being tethered to a power cord. What can I do here to get suspend working correctly?

Modern standby consumes a lot of power unfortunately, People seem to be working around this by doing sleep followed by hibernate after a few hours, so that the battery doesn’t deplete as much.
