If you are not using bluetooth (higher power consumption) you can simply turn it off.
To turn off bluetooth only temporarily, use rfkill:
$ sudo rfkill block bluetooth
To permanently turn off bluetooth create a udev rule:
$ sudo -H gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/50-bluetooth.rules
Then in the empty file, insert these lines:
# disable bluetooth
SUBSYSTEM=="rfkill", ATTR{type}=="bluetooth", ATTR{state}="0"
Save the file and exist.
