Where the Power Goes

Measure current and find the big drains.

The Battery Budget

A battery holds a fixed amount of energy. To run for months, you must understand exactly where every drop of power goes. 🔋

Measured in Milliamps

Power draw is measured as current in milliamps (mA). A board pulling 80mA from a 2000mAh battery drains it in just about a day.
