I remember asking for this a lot back when Shadowplay (I think that’s what it was called?) first came out. Valve time is a helluva drug.

The Decky recorder plugin lets you do this now, but having the feature turned on adds about 1w of power draw.

Yep, that’s roughly what I’m seeing. If you’re playing a very light game where the battery would have lasted 7 hours, you will definitely notice the extra drain. If you’re playing a game where the battery was shooting for 3 hours, it makes very little difference.
