Abstract
Various embodiments are generally directed to an apparatus, method and other techniques to determine a threshold value of power for a fundamental function for a device, determine whether a current power level of a power source is equal to or less than the threshold value for the fundamental function. Further, and in response to determining the current power level is less than or equal to the threshold value, prohibit operation of an extended function, and in response to determining the current power level is not less than or equal to the threshold value, permit operation of the extended function.
