Hi,
with the new fuel gauge driver which sets the
correct battery capacity we IMHO get more
reliable current measurements from
/sys/class/power_supply/bq27421-0
Here is the 2GB Pyra in idle with 250 MHz
current: -644000uA
And here after turning off display and keyboard
backlight:
current: -483000uA
And the measure-suspend script also works now.
average 124137 uA over 29 seconds
average 108361 uA over 299 seconds
Well, we know that we do not shut down everything
during suspend.
BR,
Nikolaus
