So i have a odd problem with Ff. It uses way to much battery from my laptops battery. I get about 9 to 10 hours with edge, around 6 with chrome, and 1 with ff. Is there a way to stop the big battery consumption from firefox?

Are you running anything else?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
