Homebrew Question Underclocking for longer Battery

[TheSpearGuy]

Preparing for a long trip.
Using Freebird, which settings do get the most out of the battery ?
I should also point out that I'm only interrested in playing GameBoy,SNES maybe some N64.

You can get the most from underclocking GPU. Underclocking CPU and RAM is not worth it.

Underclocking GPU under 230 MHz is also pointless imo.

For anyone who is interrested:
I get a little above 7 Hours of my very first gen Switch by underclocking

CPU to 714 MHz
GPU to 230 MHz

This is about one hour more than the Switch is typically capable
NOTE that you will probably not be able to play most games especially no BotW
I only played SNES and GameBoy Games using Emulators

I also underclock games like Owlboy and Downwell. Games that don't require much power to run fullspeed. I especially underclock in docked mode where I can so my Switch runs cooler.
