    To get optimal battery life, what settings do you reccomend changing under the Advanced Power Settings for the Powersaver battery plan?

    I am happy with what I have, but I just wanted to make sure that there was not anything that was a big power-sucker in the default settings...

    It isn't called "power saver" for no reason. Like he said above, undervolt the processor. Other than that there's not much else.
