> Now that deviceOS@1.5.0 is (almost?) here, I have been working to field my first Boron based devices. First, I build a new carrier board and shared the results here: Then, I started posting my main counting application over. The biggest adjustment in this effort has been working on low power / sleep. As you all know, the Boron - unlike the Electron - does not have a Real Time Clock. So, I added one to the carrier board based on @rickkas7’s awesome MCP79410RK library and circuit design to c…

Please take a look at the results and my approach.
