OT ->Tim Wessman: TI-Nspire current draw Message #1 Posted by Joerg Woerner on 8 May 2011, 12:07 p.m.
Hi Tim,
It is already a week since I promised you to measure the current of the TI-Nspire. With my mother in Germany, my wife in North Carolina and me in Up-state New York it was a nice Sunday morning to solder a current probe ;-))
Please remember that the Nspire uses 4 1.5V batteries:
Calculator off: 0.4 mA
Booting: 30...35 mA
"Idle" 7...10 mA
"Redrawing" 15...25 mA
"Heavy typing" 15...30 mA
"Typical use" 10...20 mA
Hope this helps.
Have a great Sunday and treat your wife accordingly!
Regards,
Joerg
