put them in a script such as handler.sh so when you're on AC or BAT then the script takes care of handling all that? Seems way easier to me and is what I do.
In AUR there is script called powerdown that does all that.
yup there is but you still need to make sure it is doing everything for your system properly. To me it does not cover all the possibilities for every machine out there. It is good to look at for example settings though.
I know on my system it missed over half the tuneable's when I gave it a shot.
Exactly why using powertop would be much better - it works very well on my systems and seems to catch all the possible tunables on any system without me having to rewrite different scripts each time. I'm envisioning a powertop --set-all-good and be done with it.
