> laptop with 2 hours of battery life at 100% CPU usage

Is there any laptop on the market that lives up to this. Even top specced MBPs I've gotten from work fall down when you actually use the CPU with compilers and VMs.

My simple M1 mpb 16gb seems to work for almost 2 hours when hammering the cpu. Haven’t timed it actually but I find it astonishing compared to the Dell mess I’ve had to deal with before.
Oh just an example. Hammer it at 100% CPU usage and report battery life based on that.

Or a (min,max) based on idle and 100% CPU.
