Caffeine - Keep Awake Extension for Chrome
Caffeine - Keep Awake is a Chrome extension designed to prevent your system or display from entering a sleep or power-saving state. It operates either at display level, preventing screensavers or dimming, or system level, keeping the entire system awake. Features include the option to set a wake period, keeping the system awake during downloads, and the system reverting back idle upon completion of tasks. This extension is useful for uninterrupted connections during a download, maintaining screen activity during presentations and reading, or simply when you need your computer to stay awake without manually changing power settings.

Mateusz, 2024-12-20Works great. I wouldn't rely on it 100%, but it's amazing for finishing a long download while at work/asleep without having to worry about sleep mode interrupting it, or worry about wasting energy leaving it on all night/shift. To the devs: I appreciate everything you do !
