Another quick search and somebody suffered your pain in 2011 :P http://interactive-matter.eu /blog/2009/08/29/driving-circuits-from-a-cr2032-lithium-coin-cell#comment-5748
I'm a fan of AAA power, since they're cheap and rechargeable options, but what about other options: - Parallel CR2032 - Rechargeable coin cell http://www.digikey .com/product-detail/en/ML2430-CJ1/SY615-ND/3662229 Changing the microsd storage by flash storage don't improve the situation, because they also typically eat 10-15ma when writing :S On Thu, Apr 9, 2015 at 10:12 AM, Werner Almesberger <[email protected]> wrote: > Felix wrote: > > I was curious about that and find some data on stackoverflow: > > > http://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/37173/low-power-micro-sd-card-storage/123386#123386 > > Ah, nice !
