I’ve installed TLP on my Lenovo ThinkBook laptop and was wondering if there are additional steps I can take to extend the battery life when using the laptop unplugged.
Could you please share more tips and tricks for maximizing battery life on Linux laptops?
if battery is the priority the single biggest gain I can recommend is to use xorg with compositing off. (Gnome cannot do this, KDE can, if you use a WM then don’t use Picom etc)
If you can tolerate screen tearing you can save a significant amount of power while web browsing.
I use KDE only. I’ll surely give this a try thank you.
