&lt;p&gt;If you want minimal current consumption, you should leave GPIO untouched, or set them into default setting if they have been touched. Then all GPIOs are in high impedance state and will not leak any current.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
