This is not a solution at all. Post says this only works with lid closed, but most MPB16's will achieve reduction from 20W to 8-9W just by closing the lid, with no settings changes needed.
That being said, 8-9W with closed lid is still high. Consumption for second monitor when it's idle shouldn't be more than 1W.
After seeing the title I got my hopes up, that it will work within 1-2W range for idle regardless of lid being closed. That would be a solution, 8-9W definitely is not.
