What does an eink screen have to do with anything? I work outside in a hammock during the summer on my mac and never have to bring it in to charge once, unless I forgot to the day before. That’s with running heavy applications like Jetbrains IDEs or Lightroom.

Laptops and screens can be pretty efficient. I got a pretty cheap run of the mill one (Arch btw) that easily does >8 hours at full blast HDR and no power saving.

I gotta add to this the app Brightintosh. It kicks up the screen brightness to the actual Mac brightness of the screen so a good 2x brighter. Major dif using in bright environments, less screen life and color accuracy theoretically
