TLP is a feature-rich Linux utility that saves laptop battery power without the need to delve into technical details. Rest easy after installation knowing that TLP's default settings are already optimized for battery life. However, you can also fully customize TLP to suit your unique needs.
The settings are organized into three profiles performance, balanced and power-saver. The profiles switch automatically, allowing you to adjust between savings and performance independently for AC and battery operation. The newly introduced tlp-pd enables manual profile switching with a mouse click and completely replaces power-profiles-daemon.
But wait, there's more! TLP is completely customizable to suit your unique needs, so you can achieve even greater power savings or meet your exact requirements – the possibilities are endless.
Last but not least, TLP provides a unified approach to battery charge thresholds for ThinkPads and many other supported laptops.
