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?

    Intel is really awful with this. AMD is better but slowly getting to Intel levels.

    I don’t follow, I thought AMD was less efficient. You say it’s the other way around but it’s getting worse? Or I’m reading it wrong?

      Hasn’t been the case since Zen launched in 2017.

      Although it took them 2-3 more years on laptop to overtake intel in efficiency, because of less sophisticated sleep stuff.
