Absolutely BEST gaming laptop with OUTSTANDING battery life?

Hi there, I might be spending a couple of years in Mexico renting tiny apartments and life frugally, but might be moving between places due to potential safety concerns.

 

What is the best best best gaming laptop, preferably a super powerful CPU and at least rtx 2070 graphics, with the most outstanding battery life there is on the market as of today? Budget isn't that much of a concern. I just like a super powerful gaming rig with absolutely outstanding, thinkpad t420 level battery life?

- Alienware m15 (Had this laptop a while back from HIDevolution and bought it with their upgraded thermals, Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut + Fujipoly Extreme Thermal Pads, with that upgrade which reduces temps by 15C, the laptop performed like a champ and never overheated, plus I got the 90WHr version so it had superb battery life, and power, all in a very portable and sturdy little package)

 

- MSI GS65

 

If you email donald@hidevolution.com , you might be able to get a small discount. He's the salesman I dealt with when I ordered my laptops and what I like about him is that he never tries to over-sell you on anything just to make a bigger sale but treats you like a friend and gives genuine advice. He even saved me a few bucks sometimes when I chose upgrades that I didn't necessarily need.
