Technical Methodology & Reference Guide

Handheld players often confuse APU TDP with total battery power draw. Setting your Steam Deck or ROG Ally to a 15W TDP does not mean the system draws 15 Watts from the battery. Voltage conversion through the motherboard VRM (~12% loss), screen illumination (1.5W to 4W), speakers, and Wi-Fi elevate total system discharge to approximately 21W–24W.
