      Sorry for bumping this again, but now that a new LoPy firmware has been released, any news about the low power fix?

      The specifications of the PySense on the website still says:

      Ultra low power operation (~1uA in deep sleep)

      ...since that promise is still off by a factor of about 2500, at least an ETA would make me happy :)
