Hi,

thanks for your input, it's greatly appreciated. I'm quite new to considering my power consumption, so indeed I may still do naive choices. I only based it on the reputation of ARM for being more energy efficient, and the observation that ARM devices indeed run longer with a full battery charge (but there may indeed be a lot of secondary variables explaining it).

I'm curious : how do you measure the consumption of electricity in watts? Is there a tool meant for that?
