Abysmal Battery Life

While getting my Hackintosh to work was fun, even though I only did this to use the Arc browser which I had installed on Windows, I'm going to switch back. But as I'm leaving, does anyone know why my battery life dropped so dramatically? This is the main reason I'm going back, because I can't do any school work without worrying about my battery life all of the time. I don't always have access to a charger, so only getting 4-5 hours of battery life sucks for me. I used to get 12-13 on Windows. Is it a bad battery readout? Or does it really drain that fast? It seems like it drains about 10% every 20 minutes, and even more while just doing mundane things like using terminal and such. I'm not asking for any help on how to fix it, but I would just like to know what is going on.
