Yes 1A is a lot. I am not an electronician.... but would not it be possible to have a little circuit in the minty boost limiting current to 500mA (or other value), even though the freerunner "tries" to get 1A ? _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
