The average current is 704uA and the base current is 680uA when connecting to another RF52840 DK with project central multilink .

However, I do not think the vlinky app is power optimized, also if LED&amp;#39;s are turned on it will use more power. Consider using the &lt;a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.sdk5.v15.0.0/ble_sdk_app_pwr_mgmt.html?cp=4_0_0_4_1_2_20"&gt;Power Profiling Application&lt;/a&gt; if you want to measure current for given scenarios.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
