Bit out of practice with PICAXE
Trying for minimum power consumption in a small 08M2 project, but not getting what I wanted, so reduced to a minimum...
3.1v supply - 3x fairly flat AA cells
Leg 1 - V+
Leg 2 - Earth
Leg 3 - Earth
Leg 4 - Earth
Leg 5 - Earth
Leg 6 - Earth
Leg 7 - open circuit
Leg 8 - Earth
Program
Power consumption 15.5mA - was hoping/expecting for something far less than 1mA
Ideas?
Edit: setfreq k31 makes no discernible difference
