That would be 100mA at 12V. Bart You're right, of course. I got busy reading about a few hundred milliamps for this in, 500 for that (at +3 or +5V, not 12) and slipped the decimal. Oops. In any case, 170 mA is a pretty good measurement. That's sitting in my driveway with GPS and flarm transmission active, no threats. -Evan / T8
