Hi! I have a Firebeetle 32 and Lora Radio 433MHz. This works well out of the box. I'm currently testing deep sleep power consumption (esp_deep_sleep_start())

Without the LoRa board, I get 10uA as expected, in deep sleep.

With the LoRa board attached (ie. stacked on top), I get 20000uA (2mA). This occurs even if I don't use lora in the code (i.e. no lora.init()).

How can I configure things to achieve 10uA consumption with the lora board attached?

What is the power consumption test method you use? The power consumption that we tested was less than 1uA.

I tested the power consumption by putting a DMM inline with the battery. This normally works well. It shows 10uA for the ESP32 in deep sleep, but 20000uA for the ESP32+Lora in deep sleep.

What was your setup to test? What code did you run?

See more details on the forum, including a sample setup/code to test. Might be more valuable to discuss there?

We may not make firebeetle cover with 868MHz, do you need customization?
