## BedrockPower

Clone the [bedrockpower github repository](https://github.com/SolidRun/BedrockPower) and follow the repositories instructions.

Support is experimental and might not work for all devices, This is a great option to test your bedrock with different power configurations and then go to BIOS and set it persistently.
