Question What tests/programs can I run to simulate battery usage and test the battery run time ?

[USAFRet]

If I run the two laptops with the same tests, why would it matter? I want to see how long each laptop runs using the same tests. Since I intend to use either one, whichever one that has better battery life

That was my point from the start.
From yesterday:
"Since you seem to want to compare two different laptops for overall battery longevity, a similar workload on both would seem to do the trick. "

Run both with the same workload, no matter what it is.
See which one lasts the longest.

Sounds good. I'll see if I can find benchies that will loop without the screens dimming. And withought the AMD laptop hanging the program randomly
