This is a one man project. It's been out for a couple of day. We are only two people testing it. The battery life is now miles better than what I had on other measures (including TLP and power profiles daemon).

TLP and Powertop will yield significant gains relative to the atrocious battery life out of the box, but fall about 50% short of basic Windows or macOS performance 5 years ago - However, System76 power management seems to do very well - about the time I gave up on Fedora (33 - mostly because of the putrid battery life) & went back to an older OSX I first heard about it and people were raving about how close it was to the performance of the big commercial OSes. - Plus I have a linux box running System76 Ubuntu (slated for a Rocky upgrade) and can confirm that the battery life is within 50-70% of a commercial OS - far, far better than anything else I have seen in the Linux ecosystem.
