Been really happy with the new Brave so far. Made me able to drop my the last Google application on my computer.

Only thing that bugs me is still having to resort to either Firefox or Safari on mac when on battery, since Brave keeps the dedicated GPU in use after navigating to anything that activates it (a Brave Helper process seems to keep it active in the background).

Have you tried killing that process manually? If it improves battery life, contact Brave support and ask for a configurable timeout.
