sample BLE beacon app for measuring energy consumption

bios-bob

i'm looking for an extremely simple BLE beacon app, which advertises (say) at 1HZ and then enters a "low-power" sleep mode....

there are numerous samples included in the SDK -- where should i start????

i've tried the (eddystone) beacon sample....  works fine -- though it's not obvious how to change the advertising interval....

more important, however, the target is consuming ~300 uA between advertising events....

is there a sample app that enters some ON_IDLE state with current consumption in the 1-2 uA range???

    i switched over to the `multiple_adv_set` example, where i only am enabling the non-connectible advertising; i also adjusted the advertising rate per my use-case....

    power consumption between advertising events was still ~300 uA....

    my use-case will also require transmission at 5dB....  how can i change the TX POWER used by the BLE stack ???   also, can i restrict the stack to use just *one* of the three advertising channels....

    is there some reference documentation on the BLE stack which defines what i can/cannot do in my `main.c` ???
