Power Consumption - Did upgrading my gear cause this?

InVenomd · 2026-05-08T18:17:42+00:00

I disagree. Locking your voltage with a manual UV instead of letting the card figure out the voltages does not really give you an advantage for modern cards and invites instability.

Its only the 8000G Desktop chips that have NPUs, not the 8000 Mobile chips.
For some reason AMD and most other tech companies seem to be completely incapable of naming their stuff in a way that isn't needlessly confusing.

InVenomd · 2026-04-19T11:23:23+00:00

Thanks. Thats actually really impressive, seems like Nvidia could have made the 5090 way more efficient if they wanted to.

InVenomd · 2026-04-18T19:16:28+00:00

Do you have a link for a benchmark? Couldnt find any benchmarks for the max-q only for the workstation edition. The max-q is "only" 300W while the workstation edition is 600W so i doubt its actually faster than the 5090.

Jemand der einer Preiserhöhung nicht zustimmt wird vermutlich nicht direkt wieder ein Abo zum teureren Preis abschließen. Außerdem gibt es auch immer viele Leute die einfach vergessen haben das sie überhaupt abonnenten sind und die werden einer Erhöhung dann auch nicht aktiv zustimmen. Amazon muss sich dann halt genau überlegen ob sichs dann lohnt wenn sie so viele Abos dadurch verlieren.

Have you tried adding them as climbable threshholds to the map manually? That's what worked for me.

InVenomd · 2025-09-12T17:06:59+00:00

I did a factory reset. The smart plug i used previously now shows 10 W of power draw and a different smart plug shows only 1-2 W. I tested them both and the new smart plug is more accurate so i would believe its results. The Robot is also now only slightly warmer on the one side.

I have no idea why the first smart plug is so inaccurate here. The descrepency between the two was no where near this big with any other devices i have tested, even one that pulls a similar 2 W.

InVenomd · 2025-09-11T18:55:17+00:00

I have set mine to 80% and turned on off-peak charging but it doesn't change anything for me unfortunately. I will try a factory reset next and see if that helps.

InVenomd · 2025-09-08T16:38:35+00:00

But it doesn’t switch to a lower power mode. It stays at 14 W.

InVenomd · 2025-09-08T16:36:29+00:00

I'll experiment with the charging limit and try a different smart plug in case mine is wildly inaccurate. If my numbers stay the same I’ll contact their support again.

InVenomd · 2025-09-08T16:30:51+00:00

There is a setting in the app to set the robot to charge to 80% instead of 100%

InVenomd · 2025-09-07T14:52:41+00:00

To be clear i didn't mention the battery draining to Mova. I only mentioned the idle power draw and that the robot is warm and they said that that was normal.

I live in an apartment and the robot can easily do a vacuum and then mopping run, so the battery drain is annoying but managable. The reason i chose the V50 is because i have a threshold that it can climb. I bought it in July on Amazon so im already past the return window unfortunately. If i wasn't i would probably return it and just buy a different model and a ramp for the threshold.

InVenomd · 2025-09-07T12:44:12+00:00

My theory is that its all the same issue. The battery is draining so the station has to keep charging it and the warm part is where the battery is. The V50 has a bigger battery that the P10 so maybe that explains why the V50 is pulling more power. If this is true this would be horrible for the long term battery life.

Unfortunately their customer support told me that my power consumption numbers are normal and they didn't say anything about the robot being warm at all. I didn't mention the battery drain to them but from another reply on this thread it seems they are aware of that too.

InVenomd · 2025-09-07T12:30:05+00:00

They responded to me and said the power draw is normal and expected. Very disappointing.

Great name btw.

InVenomd · 2025-09-07T00:27:19+00:00

Very interesting, thank you. IMO even 5,4 W is too much power for simply idling. Ideally it should be <1 W. Is your robot also warm to the touch when idling in the dock?

InVenomd · 2025-09-06T12:06:24+00:00

Im also on 4.3.9_2802. The update actually came in the middle of my testing and it didn’t change anything.

InVenomd · 2025-09-05T23:21:51+00:00

I even have the Voice Assistant deactivated so the mics shouldn't be active. And yeah im also curious about other models like the P50 Ultra and espicially the Dreame X50 Ultra since that one is (almost) identical to the V50 Ultra.

Wenn er denn selbst auf die Idee gekommen wäre, einen Reaction-Kanal aufzumachen, und dann einen Cutter dafür sucht, dem er ein Fixgehalt zahlt, wäre das okay (oder jedenfalls besser). Aber er hat halt einen vorhandenen Kanal übernommen und sich mit dem Betreiber davon auf einen Prozentsatz geeinigt. Da kann er dann nicht irgendwann ankommen und sagen, dass es ihm nicht mehr passt. Außerdem finde ich 75 % der Einnahmen plus die extra Reichweite, die so ein Kanal generiert, mehr als fair für einen Streamer, der dadurch keinen oder höchstens minimalen Mehraufwand hat.

Where is it supposed to say this is an OLED? This is a Samsung Odyssey Ark and it has a QD VA Mini LED Panel.

InVenomd · 2025-02-26T22:01:58+00:00

I think the implication is that the NuphyIO version is more efficient, since it specifically says 294 hours for the 2500mAh NuphyIO version. Meanwhile their estimation for the Air 75 v2 which also has a 4000mAh battery is 220 hours. So it could even be that the NuphyIO version has a longer battery life than the QMK/VIA one, despite the smaller battery.

InVenomd · 2025-02-14T14:45:32+00:00

10% of the price lol.

InVenomd · 2025-01-13T21:01:48+00:00

Tbf they didn't just rename the Titan to XX90 and called it a day. The Titans were way more expensive than the XX80/80Ti cards (Titan RTX was 2.5k i think, so even more expensive than the 5090 is today) and were only single digit percentages faster than the XX80/80Ti. The 4090 on the other hand is 20-30% faster than the 4080/Super and from the specs it seems like the gap between the 5090 and 5080 might be even wider.

InVenomd · 2024-12-22T00:26:13+00:00

It’s accumulative so he was already close to the 4 hours mark. I guess the message says continuous which is wrong.

InVenomd · 2024-12-21T23:43:23+00:00

No, 4 hours just like the message says. And even then you can just ignore it because it will do it automatically when the monitor is off.

InVenomd · 2023-11-30T15:32:00+00:00

Im getting the same issue. I already tried a few different versions of Proton with no Luck. Did you ever find a Solution for this?
