That's the part that doesn't click with me.
This customer designs industrial HVAC systems, which suck hundreds if not thousands of kilowatt-hours per day. Millions of watts. And they're excited that the Quark draws a few milliwatts less than a competitor's part? Or that it saves a few dollars in the $100,000 bill of materials?
A better case study would someone doing a wireless sensor working off a battery in a cornfield or something. Show us the performance per watt.
