Yes, PUSH Video Wallpaper will drain your PC battery, but the amount of drain depends entirely on whether you are actively looking at your desktop and how you configure the application settings.
Unlike static images, video wallpapers require constant processing from your Central Processing Unit (CPU) and Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) to decode and loop the video files. This increased hardware activity draws more power, which will noticeably shorten your laptop’s battery life if left unchecked. How PUSH Video Wallpaper Affects Your Battery
Active Desktop Use: When you are staring at your desktop with no other apps open, the software actively renders the video. This causes a steady pull on your battery.
Background Operation: If you are using a web browser or writing a document in full-screen mode, the video wallpaper is hidden from view.
Built-in Power Savers: Fortunately, PUSH Video Wallpaper includes “Performance-Aware Playback” features designed to minimize this impact. Smart Settings to Reduce Battery Drain
You can drastically lower the energy consumption by adjusting the app’s native automation rules:
Enable Auto-Pause: Set the app to automatically pause the video whenever a game or video player goes full-screen.
Battery Saver Mode: Configure the software to reduce activity or stop rendering completely the moment your laptop unplugged from the wall.
Video Complexity: Use lower-resolution video loops (like 1080p instead of 4K) or simpler animations, as complex graphics force your GPU to work harder.
If you plan to use your laptop away from a power outlet for a long time, the safest option for maximum battery endurance is to temporarily close the application and stick to a static background.
