![]() Since I use terminal quite a bit (I’m a Unix engineer), I put the following into ~/.bash_profile:Īlias sleepoff=’sudo pmset -b sleep 0 sudo pmset -b disablesleep 1′Īlias sleepon=’sudo pmset -b sleep 5 sudo pmset -b disablesleep 0′ The following simply sets sleep time to 0, and disables sleep. Sudo pmset -b sleep 0 sudo pmset -b disablesleep 1 After research, I found the easiest way is to run the following as admin in the terminal: It’s a great application, but for some reason stopped disabling lid sleep on battery when I installed High Sierra. Up until MacOS High Sierra came out, I was using a 3rd party application called InsomniaX to keep the system from sleeping when the lid was closed. Before anyone says anything, the heat is expelled through the bottom on left and right openings to avoid the monitor being closed being an issue. (MUCH sweeter than previous setups on systems) The biggest problem I ran into was not being able to close my laptop screen with the external monitors attached, without the system going into standby mode. That’s when I picked up the latest 15 inch Macbook Pro, and dual monitors plugged in with HDMI to USB-C adapters. It wasn’t until an incident with my iMac having a video module go out that I figured It’d be best just to have one computer for everything. ![]() ![]() I’ve used Macbook Pro for years now, and up until I picked up my latest 2017 Macbook Pro I never worried about having external monitors. ![]()
