Based on a long term (44 hour) test I've measured that the average draw of the XO when powered off is 1.64 mA. Although this seems to match my previous measurement it actually does not. This is a measurement of the battery voltage rail. So 1.64 mA * 6.68V = 11mW. I was expecting a number half of that. The previous measurement was on the suspend 3.3V rail which would be 5.3mW so there's 5.7mW unaccounted for. Some of this is probably the switching regulator since I doubt its very efficient in this range. In any case Leaving the battery in the XO will cost you about 1.3%/day. -- Richard Smith <[email protected]> One Laptop Per Child _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
