[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1937612, member: 396914"] The best SMC reset on an Mx Mac is to power it off, then wait about 10 seconds and do a cold boot. The SMC is reset every cold boot. As for battery, the CPU is busy handing the re-indexing of the storage drive for Spotlight, so battery life can be impacted while that is happening. Finally, Sonoma is up to 14.1 now, so it might help to do that update. [/QUOTE]
