Battery Drain While On AC Power

May 2, 2010

I'm on the 3G model and I've noticed that the battery drains three percent down to 97%, WHILE ITS CHARGING! Anyone have a similar experience or an idea why the device is consuming more power than the charger is supplying?

Battery Drain While On VPN

Apr 12, 2010

I noticed that if I have VPN on and not do anything on the iPad ( even sleep mode ), the battery drains down to low levels within 10 hours or so. I have noticed the same on the 3GS as well. Is this something well known or expected? or I should contact iPad tech support?

Battery Drain While 3G Active

Jun 14, 2010

I am experiencing an odd behavior. When I put my iPad 3G to sleep, the battery drains at an amazing rate (1% every five minutes or so). As soon as I wake it up, the battery doesn't drain beyond what I would think is normal. I've experimented with turning off push, wifi, 3G, and so on, and nothing seems to help. Because the battery does not drain when it's on, I think it has to be something in software (probably a specific app).Information : 15" MacBook Pro 2.93 GHz Core 2 Duo Mac OS X (10.5.6) iPhone 3GS, iPad 3G.

Quick Battery Drain

Apr 11, 2010

Been using my iPad a lot since I got it. On its third complete power drain now. Was using it and got down to 3% left. Plugged it in via the wall outlet and continued using the iPad.

I was typing in mob codes in the game TurfWars when it shut down on me. I thought that was weird cause I was plugged into the power. Showed it was charging and everything. I let it sit there for a while till I could get it back on (it was sitting the battery indicator symbol in the middle of the screen). I started using it again and watched as even though i was plugged in showing 3% battery it dropped back down to 2% after using it for a while.

So first issue is it appears that even via the wall outlet I am using more power than it is charging and still draining the battery.


Second issue I noticed is that while plugged into the wall if I do the power down procedure of Holding the lock button and the menu button then sliding the bar to power off it will immediately reboot and show the apple symbol like its booting. After the apple goes away its stuck at a black screen but you can tell its on cause the screen is almost like a backlit black screen. No matter what button I hit here nothing happens. I have to unplug the power then it shows the lock screen and seems to function like normal.

So I can't actually power the ipad off and have it charge cause it just reboots. Anyone else have this happen?

I can have the unit stay powered off and not reboot as long as power isn't connected.

Battery Drain While Off On IPad 3?

Aug 31, 2012

My current generation iPad (64GB, 4G LTE), after working fine since new, has started excessively draining the battery while turned off.It will totally drain the battery from fully recharged state in about 2 days while off and not being used. It may be total coincidence, but it may have started after the latest IOS update. Battery life seems normal when using the iPad, it just drains when off. I have performed a total reset/restore of the OS and apps with no change. I have made sure that all apps have fully shut down and nothing is running, cellular is turned off. It seems to happen when powered off by the power-button, or by the smart-cover. Is there something in IOS 5 which runs in the background that could be causing this?

Battery Drain During Sleep

Mar 31, 2012

My new Ipad 4G battery drains about 10% while sleeping overnight. Location services is turned OFF, mobile data OFF, Mail fetch and push OFF, Fetch set to Manually, Icloud Inactive, the only thing that is on is WIFI.

Just on a test, if I turn on Airplane mode and turned off WIFI, it only drained 1% overnight. Why does WIFI take up battery life during sleep if almost everything has been turned off?

Example Of Battery Drain Playing A Movie

Apr 7, 2010

I was curious to see how much of my iPad's battery drain after having played a movie.

I started with 100% fresh battery charge from disconnecting it from my Apple iPad dock.

I had "Where the Wild Things Are" movie already loaded and played it through to completion - 1 hour and 41 minutes.

The battery level after the movie completed was at 87%.

This tells me I could play movies of this type for almost 13 hours before my battery reached 0% charge level.

I'm impressed unless I've missed something here.

What have others observed wrt this ? Is this an expected finding ?
