<![CDATA[UHF-RFID M5Stack Current and Power consumption]]>Hi

Just wanted to know if somebody measured the power consumption for the M5Stack UHF-RFID Reader. Also, hos is the range coverage?

I have noticed it drains the battery of the M5Paper quite quickly. I have not tested that specifically as it was not a requirement for my project. The range is quite good at 50-70 cm.

I think there is a way to change the power and read strength, though I have not investigated too deeply. I am using other methods to alter read time. When I get to a stable point I will refine some more.
