      Hi there,

      I'm using a custom board with the Pysense and Sipy and I'm measuring the current consumption of the device. It turns out that the active current (current when the SiPy is not in deepsleep) is way too high (100mA). I actually got it down to 100mA by disabling the Bluetooth and Wifi, but I still find this figure way to high.

      Is there any advice on how to lower this value ? Are there any other modules that are active by default that can be turned off?

      Best regards,

      Luis
