I made a fresh new install of macOS Monterey Beta4 and effectively I can confirm your values for power consumption with AirportItlwm
v. 2.0.0.
Have you reported your findings on itlwm Gitter page?
Hi Profzei. Thanks for your answer. I didn't report this issue on itlwm Gitter page. I was waiting for your answer ;)
Hi,
I noticed this comparating AirportItlwm.kext version 2.0.0 (included since EFI 2.3.0) and version 1.3.0 (I think the last EFI with this version was 1.9.0).
Using Intel power gadget, I saw the value of consumption (IDLE) with AirportItlwm.kext 1.3.0 was about 0,80-0,90 W. With 2.0.0 version, this value rised to 1,50-1,60 W. (using EFI 2.3.0 in both cases).
I know, version 2.0.0 is faster and more stable than 1.3.0, but this power consumption increase are quite bigger and causes a faster battery draining.
Did you experience something similar?
