Re: >10W idle power usage on framework laptop 12th gen 13inch

It is extention of powersave mode which disabling / enabling CPUs.

Interesting, maybe i'll test on it.

Regarding estimated life time:

  Battery state: high, 66% remaining, 152 minutes life estimate

  AC adapter state: not connected

  Performance adjustment mode: powersaving (400 MHz)

which is like 2x from usual numbers.

This is for idle current usage?

I tried disabling cores in my bios down to 3 CPUs and did comparisons and i didn't really notice a savings.
