I have looked into the 'lying' status monitor and would like to report my findings.
All readings are done at 100 percent brightness, no auto brightness on, airplane mode, v2 Switch with oc suite cpu uv2, 1020/384/1600 ram voltage 1200/600mv, speedos cpu/gpu/soc = 1672/1688/1702.
This is readings from standard status monitor from masagrator. Micro mode not pictured is basically the same I saw it max out at -3.7W.

This is readings from the latest version from 4ifir and a previous version about 2 weeks ago. As we can see micro range is lying about power usage while mini is fine. Micro is fine in the current version released today

4IFIR luckily has a bot on its telegram that compares files in each release
In respond likely to
@ToreLto post a new version was posted today silently fixing the issue. Before this, the last time 4ifir's status monitor had been modified was November 2nd. Meaning 4ifir's status monitor was screwed up for at least 2 weeks probably more.

And this isn't the first time 4IFIR has had a dodgy status monitor. It happened 5 months ago and I don't know how long it persisted.
View attachment 404647I don't know about you guys but I don't trust a status monitor that seems wonky to say the least and any claims from it about 'performance per watt'.
