Yeah from what I've seen you can desolder the status LED to lower the current even more. With the ESP32's you can use the lower power processor as well. I want to automate my blinds, which is kinda annoying as that means ~6 different, "high up" spots in high visibility areas, and obvious motors mean "high power" (compared to micro amps). I'm really not sure how to approach this one yet...

Don't you have to run power to the blinds to run the motor to move them up and down anyway?

  You assume the blinds are power to begin with.

    The parent comment is talking about adding motors to their existing blinds. I'm saying: the power consumtion of an LED seems minimal compared to the power consumption of the motor to move them up and down.
