hey people, quick question
my laptop has a 60.87 wh battery, which isn't a small battery per say but due to my i7-14700HX and my rtx 5060 laptop gpu
it doesn't last an hour browsing firefox, i turned on integrated graphics and it added like 20 minutes, then i thought about undervolting just to find out it's bios locked, which is dissapointing because that was my best option
and before you say it neeeeed the laptop to last a good while while i'm outside and not plugged in because i'm studyingg computer engineering which requires a good bit of laptop in college
any help on what to do?

windows, right?
perhaps there are tips specific to your laptop online--you could search that up
it would be odd if the oem os drained battery and nobody complained about it until just now

both have the exact same thing, i thought fedora would be better but funnily enough it's a bit worse

Didn't really see much exept for that the discharge at vivaldi and discord opened with powersiving mode on is 30 watts

does battery life significantly increase on idle
idle as in like battery saving heaven?
yeah i did everthing and it's 24 watts
including killing the gpu btw

uh, idle means you're not running any programs
i think you're thinking of 'idol'/'ideal'
