When I go to turn it back on again, the battery's completely dead. I haven't had that from any non-apple laptop for a long time, and I sometimes go +6 months without turning them on The trackpad though I'm in agreement with. I never understood why people use an external trackpad with their imacs until I used it on the macbook

I feel like my M1 Air could live on for weeks in sleep mode, as long as nothing's plugged in. Maybe you could try Sleep Air [1] to find the culprit?
