Another user trying to reduce power consumpotion seemns ot have the same number as you about 2.5w. His solution to replace the Pi's regulator (to make it similar to model 2) reduces consumpotion by 25% see http://www.bitwizard.nl/wiki/index.php?title=Reducing_power_consumption_of_a_raspberry_Pi ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
