I'm seeing high battery use with version 1.58.2. I've switched to full charging at night to get a better view of usage.

I did a 20minute test with your exact settings and unfortunately was unable to reproduce anything close to what you saw. I tried browsing both video heavy feeds and just "All" and neither feeds caused any noticeable battery issues.
12% battery drain in 20 minutes would be 36% an hour (assuming it's linear). That's close to what I'm seeing.
How does Sync or Reddit compare on your phone?
Wait you are right. I didnt even read my own screenshot. This thing must be way off. In reality my battery only drained 3%. I started at 94% and after 20 minutes I was at 91%. I have no idea why it thinks Summit used 12% battery.
