> nRF5340 uses 5mA _WHEN TRANSMITTING ON ITS RADIO_. I mean that is bluetooth radio, so its cheating just a little :) No, I get your point. the ESP stuff I do spends most of its time in deepsleep, so yeah the 15ma is not great, but its not _that_ much of an issue because I can just wake up less often. Not having to use C is even better though. 10 year previous me would be screaming at my attitude. I remember when the pyboard came out and I was very much "pfftt, amateurs. 35mA to do nothing very fast" However having lots of connectivity really makes up for the not great consumption. I don't have to slap on an RF solution, or like I did 12 years ago, use a horrific ethernet->rs232 bridge. However if I need online low power consumption, I'll need to use STM32, and cry at how bad the documentation is(or was, I've not tried to use it for years).
