Hi! Our future usecase heavily relies on sleep mode. When (roughly, no guarantees ofc) will you implement sleep mode and will it be a simple firmware update?
Thank you!
Hey Sinan
The device out of the box automatically enters low power mode (wifi, CPUs etc...) - it depends if you are running the desktop, but if so, pressing the power button toggles between display on and off modes etc...
We'll do a much better job to document this soon! Saying that, what features are you looking for?
Planned are:
- scheduled power on / off (using the built in MCU to power the system down and then periodically wake it up on your own schedule)
- airplane controls (to keep the connectivity pieces idle)
- low power mode (restricting the CPU cores etc... to max speeds)
However, I'm curious more what you are looking for!
Thanks
Nick.
Hi Nick,
That's awesome!
We need our device to almost "instantly" wake from some sort of (deep) sleep into an already loaded web app per button press (no scheduling).
During sleep, we don't need modem connectivity, just as low of a power draw as possible.
May I ask what the current battery life would roughly be for low power + airplane mode? (or whatever you already tested :D)
Thank you!
Best Regards,
Sinan
