Hello everyone!

Please bear with me as this is my first time posting on this forum! Nonetheless, I’d like to learn the most extreme ways to make my windows laptop as efficient as possible while on battery, then when plugged in-make it run on full power (even overclock or overpowered). If someone can work with me to complete this project of mine; I’d greatly appreciate it, thank you.

This is a somewhat vague request. What is your objective here? You want it to last for x hours, what type of work are you doing on the device? What have you researched on your own? What device do you have and with what specs?

Also you could simply invest in a power bank and get extended battery life that way.

I directed this PC enthusiast to this Forum with the below advice. I know he's in good hands.

I just saw your post over there. Nicely done. They are a group of retired engineers who live to learn about W11 and they love to answer all kinds of questions as long as you first search for an answer on their site. Not doing so faffs them off and they'll tell you so. Have fun.

Edit: lol "faffs"!

    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October 2021 it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update, and 24H2 on 3rd October 2024 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 24H2.

Excuse me for that,
Met me try to make clear goals. When on battery power I want to conserve as much power and use as little resources as possible. When on ac power, I want to “open the flood gates” so to speak. If that helps anymore?

In the first case everything is generally optimized as it is, in the second case it is very problematic for a laptop.

If it's a gaming laptop and has dual GPUs, you can look at disabling the NVIDIA/AMD GPU and use the less power hungry Intel GPU. Setting your power plans will have a lot of good defaults for extending the battery. I also recommend dimming the display to the lowest you can tolerate as it is a huge power draw on the system.
