100% thermal throttling under 20% battery life.

[Nerolex]

Hello

i dont know why but everytime my laptop falls below 20% battery life, the laptop throttles up to 100% on intel XTU and everything becomes slow. but as i restarted my computer at around 16%, there was no thermal throttling at all. when the laptop is at under 20% it switches to battery saving mode but i turned that off and the throttling still persisted and even if the laptop's battery saving mode was on when i restarted the laptop, there would be no throttling.

And i was wondering for the 3rd picture, when i plug in my laptop to the charger, is it normal for it to throttle to 100% then back to 0%?

Could be in the Power Plan settings in windows to automatically throttle the cpu when the battery gets low.

I could be that because it is already below 20% it doesn't cross the trigger zone that tells windows to throttle the cpu to save power.

That is SpeedStep at work in combination with power saving. It's not so much throttling as it's lowering the multiplier to save power. This is normal behavior. The simple solution is to plug it in when it gets this low.
