Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A method, comprising:
determining that a trigger condition for limiting electrical power drawn by an information handling system from a power adapter coupled to the information handling system is met;
in response to determining that the trigger condition is met:
limiting the electrical power drawn from the power adapter by the information handling system to an amount less than or equal to the lesser of a power rating of the power adapter and a capacity of an AC line power source to which the power adapter is coupled to supply electrical power;
throttling a computing load at the information handling system; and
supplementing the electrical power drawn from the power adapter by drawing based on the throttled computing load and electrical power drawn from the power adapter, additional electrical power for execution of the computing load at the information handling system from an internal battery of the information handling system,

wherein the computing load is throttled and an amount of the additional electrical power that is drawn from the internal battery such that a full charge level of the internal battery is maintained.
