Ok, question here about idle current... Someone brought their saber back, saying the batteries keep going dead when it hasn't been used. I metered it, and got an idle current of 13 mA. The saber is set up with a really old economy hasbro and switching is handled with a MOSFET.
The Question is... is this in the normal range, or is it likely that I have a wiring issue somewhere? (everything else works just fine). I figure I could just add a main power switch to keep it from draining when not in use, but I want to make sure I don't have some other problem there.
