OK, the RPi should be fine power-wise in that case, though I wouldn't consider something with a 10AH motorcycle battery to be very portable. > which is 18 A-h, or 60 hours of operation. The Launchpad can run 60+ hours on a watch battery, if the on-board LED's are not lit. The LED's use much more power than the processor. > In any case, the dirt-cheap price makes it really attractive. With what > I save on silicon, I can afford to buy more lead :-) The RPi is an awesome value for such a powerful board, but the Launchpad (while much less powerful) is far cheaper: http://e2e.ti.com/group/msp430launchpad/w/default.aspx -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
