Re: Conflicted

One member of my household has a portable Pi with touchscreen, used mainly for navigation with OpenCPN. It works nicely, but, as you say, it drinks up amps. Even the beefiest Li-ion packs are on the edge because they generally do 3A and it wants 3.5A or more and doesn't seem to reduce that by much when it's idle.
