Is it possible, through AppleScript or some other method, to automatically turn Bluetooth off when my MacBook is running on battery charge? I use my MacBook in the office with a wireless Mighty Mouse and it'd be great if I didn't have to remember to switch Bluetooth on and off to preserve battery life. Thanks guys.
I placed this here because I didn't know where else it'd fit. |

I don't know if it's possible to do what you want, but I'd advise you not to worry about it anyway. My Nokia goes for four or five days with Bluetooth enabled and it has a tiny battery compared to a MacBook. Bluetooth probably affects battery life by about 30 seconds on a MacBook.
You'd certainly save more power by turning the screen brightness a notch lower than normal. … engrossed in such factional acts as dreaming different dreams. |

It would take some modification, but yes it is completely possible. |
