Settings to change to make Vivaldi use lesser battery on Windows 10
-
While I love customization, I prefer battery life on my laptop more.
I presently use edge and i want to make the switch to vivaldi. Any tips or settings which i could change to reduce battery consumption? Do you recommend any other browser for this purpose?
My entire goal is to be as battery efficient as possible.

@octuslimb Hello and Welcome to the Vivaldi Community
Well, what have you done in Edge? New Edge is based on Chromium just like Vivaldi, so any performance tweaks applied there should also work in Vivaldi.
General tips:
- Don't use extensions unless you really need them.
- Don't open too many tabs.
- Hibernate background tabs regularly.
These are mostly RAM-saving but will also help a bit on CPU usage.

@octuslimb Use the ad-blocker! Ads can eat up the battery.

@octuslimb Watch videos in 480 or 720 not HD.
