I've been thinking on switching to linux on my laptop but I keep reading on the worse battery life on linux.
You should try booting to a live USB stick. Then you can check how the performance compares on your hardware, without any permanent changes.
Eh, my lappy has terrible battery life regardless of what OS is running on it, and even then, I always use it plugged it anyway, exactly like Strong Bad (it's why I used the word "Lappy")
