Hello everybody at Peppermint Forum,
I am a newbie, trying out Peppermint 9. I really like it untill now. I am trying to find an OS that uses the least amount of power (Watt), but is still user friendly. Peppermint has been advised to me and it works great.
My question: is there a program standard available in Peppermint9 which measures power in Watt? I see voltage, but no Watt analysis.
I have heard about Powertop and Tlp. (Tlp was very difficult, (CLI), in use I have read.) Powertop does give current power in Watt, but not over an average use of hours of laptop battery use. Measured with Powertop my laptop with Peppermint9 installed uses on average 12 Watt, when simply browsing this forum. That is comparable with other Linux OS.
Has anybody got suggestions which program gives a good graphic analysis of Power in Watt?
