Yeah, I was wondering about that, especially with WiFi; definitely sounds a little high. Too bad.
Maybe Jeff's solution isn't such a bad idea after all ;-) Anyway, the M100 works fine on a "juice pack". m ----- Original Message ----- From: Josh Malone To: Model 100 Discussion Sent: Thursday, December 03, 2015 5:43 PM Subject: Re: [M100] USB "juice pack" The pi requires a huge amount of juice relative to the tandy. A stripped down pi will need 500 - 700 mA. The tandy I think needs less than 100. On Dec 3, 2015 4:18 PM, "John R.
