Battery life on linux (alien.top)

Hello people, Can you please provide the average battery life you're getting on linux alongside your framework model, your distro and usage? I'm 100% sure the fw 13 will be my next compute but I've seen a lot of difference between the battery life people are getting, so I want to see if there's a pattern.

I have a similar issue, so I looked and it also happens on 7840U Thinkpads, so apparently video acceleration isn’t quite optimized yet on Linux for the 7040 CPUs. Hopefully future kernel versions solve this.
