17 R5, using battery while plugged in during gaming

Question

I just got mine on Wednesday (27/02/2019) and I just found it on Thursday while gaming. Mine has 8750H and 1080 OC (factory OC from the buying option) and it has 330w. I read about hybrid power and using 330w power adapter. All of them 'fixed' just using 330w charger. The question is: Mine has 330w and it's still draining power? Is there explanation of it?

Hi @Shibutai, That's the way it works. Check this official article.

Thanks for your reply! Good to know it’s a feature, not a defect. Is there a way to disable that feature?

Unfortunately not, that was the way the system was designed.
