PowerSlave a Power Savings assistant 1.0.3
Tony Hughes
Windows has great power management schemes. With them you can define
how long Windows should wait when you are not using your PC before it
will turn off stuff like the monitor, saving you money.
That's great but if you are like most people, it's not that you don't
care about the planet, it's just so irritating to go grab a coffee and
find everything has timed out and you have to wait for it to fire back
up. We all know about wiggling the mouse right?
Windows lets us have more than one power scheme, so we can have one
that we use during the day that doesn't switch anything off but then
if you have a late meeting and don't get back to your PC it will burn
electricity all night.
We can have another scheme that switches stuff off after say 20
minutes but you don't want that just because Jeff wanted to tell you
about his weekend at the water cooler right?
It's a hassle to swap between them and so in reality most of us just
don't bother - right?
The Solution
PowerSlave is FREE for personal use and it helps control the power
scheme used by Windows.
It allows you to define your working day start time and end time. It
then lets the user choose one power scheme that will be used during
the working day and a second power scheme that will be used at night.
When PowerSlave sees that the time has gone past the end of your
working day it switches to the night-time power scheme. When you come
back in the morning it will see that we are back in work hours and
automatically switches back to your chosen day time plan.
