Not so much; running Chrome headlessly can yield almost the same power usage as a graphical spawn one.

You're not supposed to run it on the same device. You're supposed to run it from a server and SSH into it to save power on the client device.

You would run browsh on a power unconstrained server that you SSH to from your power-constrained device.
