@SolNine I don't know about Fedora specifically, but most distros do not optimize for power efficiency. CPUs have hard time going into lower power/sleep states and this causes quite a big "background" power draw, when nothing particular happens. Give auto-cpufreq a shot, it may be already packaged for your distro. No configuration needed. Just a systemd restart, or system reboot.
Ok thank you very much for the information! I really liked Fedora, and performance was excellent when plugged in, it was simply the mobile aspect. I need to install the latest version again at some point here.
