Ever try MicroPython for embedding?

I haven't used MicroPython and suspect it wouldn't suit my use case. I often have to design things that run on battery power (sometimes a CR2025) and so the firmware needs to be quite lean. Also most of the time is typically spent interfacing to hardware and peripherals so using something other than C wouldn't make sense.

Gotcha. At that level I guess your only options are Assembly, C, or FORTH.
