SmartSleep

SmartSleep is a fantastic preference pane that revolutionizes the way your machine sleeps. It is the perfect successor to Hibernate.prefPane. With SmartSleep, you get to enjoy a fast sleep mode and keep the ability to change your machine's battery.

Usually, just sleeping your notebook means that it will go to sleep fast, but the downside is that you lose the ability to change the battery. The battery is needed to keep the contents of the memory (RAM). On the other hand, using hibernate takes ages as the contents of the memory will be saved to disk before entering the sleep.

However, with SmartSleep, your notebook just sleeps while the battery has a high level. If the battery level drops below a certain point (default is less than 20% or 20 minutes), it will switch to sleep and hibernate automatically. In other words, you get the best of both worlds: a fast sleep mode and the ability to change your battery.

Overall, SmartSleep is an intuitive, efficient and powerful sleep management tool that is perfect for your machine. Get your hands on it today and take your sleep experience to the next level!
