    All About Laptop Battery Saver Mode in Zwift

    Our friend Shane Miller just published a helpful Quick Zwift Tip from down under on Zwift’s “Laptop Battery Saver” option:

    Key Takeaways

    Laptop Battery Saver mode could just be called “Frame Rate Limiter Mode”, since that’s what it does. It slows down the frame rate in Zwift to conserve your battery.

    Related: How to show your frames per second (FPS) in Zwift

    This setting is available under your main settings menu only on Mac or Windows laptops, and is only used when your laptop is running on battery power.

    There are four options:

    • Off: Max Speed
    • Min Battery Saver: 30 FPS
    • Med Battery Saver: 20 FPS
    • Max Battery Saver: 15 FPS

    Configuration changes happen in real time (no need to restart Zwift after changing), and graphic level detail (ultra, high, etc) stays the same regardless of the setting.
