Thanks for the feedback. Did you have to install or configure any packages
differently for the laptops than you would a desktop?

Hello,

Not realy.
I don't use any packages for battery optimalisation or anything like that.
By coincidence, I will have latitude E 6420 's available for testing on
thursday.

I'd say that's a happy coincidence (for me anyway). If you experience
similar issues please share your experience. I hope to be able to invest some
time troubleshooting the issue in the next few days and will start with checking
the fan speed (per earlier recommendations) before the system shuts down again.
