Tech Tip – Optimise Power Plans For Your Battery Life

Windows allows users to customise or switch between different power plans based on their current needs, balancing performance with energy consumption. This is especially useful for laptop users who may need to maximise battery life or require full performance during intensive tasks. Here's how works:


- Right-click on the battery icon in the taskbar and select Power Options, or search for “Edit Power Plan” in the Start menu.


- Here, you can switch between pre-defined plans such as Balanced, Power saver, or High performance.


- Customise these plans or create your own by modifying settings like screen brightness, sleep timers, and processor power management.
