BTW, there is a way to work around the v5 issue in software. Because
the LED in an unmodified v5 shines 6 or so times as bright as it should
(and eats 6 times more power), the solution is to correct the
brightness with PWM to reduce it 6 times. This would bring the
brightness and power consumption to normal.
Well, I didn't know there was also this software "workaround", since the
only that was stated was turning off the LED itself...
I didn't know that either. I've just made it up. Theoretically, it should
work.
Well, a workaround like this can be considered something like a real fix
imho :P
That is, if there is an easy way to do PWM without sucking too much CPU
time. (Well, I suppose PWM will be used on the LEDs anyway for
glowing/pulsing effects.)
