 I&amp;#39;m using the &amp;quot;experimental_ble_app_blinky&amp;quot; on the nRF52 DK, and I would like to reduce the power consumption during the advertising. 
 Indeed, during the advertising, I measured 0.445mA, and I think it is very high !

By setting the advertising interval to 1000ms, the value of the consumption measurement  decrease to 12µA, which is perfect !&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Reduce power consumption while advertising</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/64065?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:17:46 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:40086b56-6daf-43c4-abc3-ecd65b0f8130</guid><dc:creator>Sigurd</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;If you want to reduce the power consumption you could e.g. increase the advertising interval. 445 uA is a normal value if you use a 20 ms advertising interval. You can estimate the current consumption using our Power Profiler calculator &lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/power/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
