ParticipantI use a tablet computer for most of my browsing while watching (or ignoring) TV.
Starting with a fully charged battery, I get little more than one hour on this site before the battery is just about discharged. That rate is worse than watching streaming video.
On the old ISG site, I could browse for many hours with only a small amount of discharge. I can watch Youtube videos for hours and maybe take a 30% hit on battery storage.But on this site the battery takes a dive. Maybe it’s the volume of adverts. Maybe it’s the fact that I have to scroll through many pages just to get to the unread stuff.
Do others have a similar experience with battery discharge rates ?
People say that nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.
No championships worth mentioning in recent years.

ParticipantNope. No battery discharge problems for me.
By the time you realise this part of my signature doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it.

Success is the ability to go from one failure to the next without any loss of enthusiasm.
Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement.
Meditation makes doing nothing quite respectable.

Thanks Hack. It’s quicker on the PC anyway but can’t watch TV at the same time.

Some of the posts on good old ISG caused me a small amount of discharge as well, very satisfying, so you should be in heaven with larger discharges here.
