It is free and opensource. It even comes with some features (like idle sleep preventions and pre-sleep stop charging) that are only available in paid counterparts. It comes with no ads, no tracking, no telemetry, no analytics, no bullshit. It is open source, so you can read the code and verify that it does what it says it does.
It is light-weight. As a command-line tool, it is light-weight by design. No electron GUIs hogging your system resources. However, a native GUI that sits in the menubar is a good addition.
