Battery life e14 gen 5
Hello, i’ve recently purchased used thinkpad e14 gen 5 with intel 5 1335U with around 47Wh left from the original 57Wh. I’ve yesterday installed encrypted debian with xfce.The battery life is subpar at best.
From what i’ve noticed on windows 11 the idle battery discharge was at 2-3W.
On debian xfce(powersave governor, balanced power in bios) without tlp its around 6W which seems high to me.( nothing turned on except terminal with powertop).
One firefox tab and terminal and 10% brightness is around 10-11W discharge which again seems little too high. Tlp decreases this slightly to around 8W.
Is it possible to somehow get around 5W discharge on light workload (Firefox and text editor)?
Is debian/xfce the problem or is the cpu/laptop just that unoptimized?
Anyone with similar laptop which distro do you use ?
Thanks
