TLP is a pure command line tool with automated background tasks. It does not contain a GUI.

First open CLI, Terminal, Terminator or any command line.
And add the lines:

$ sudo apt-get remove laptop-mode-tools
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:linrunner/tlp
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install tlp tlp-rdw smartmontools ethtool
$ sudo tlp start
