Thankfully, this is a prototype board that I don't expect to have in
service very long. Probably no more than a few weeks to a month. I
have a couple more things to add to the circuit but I want to make
sure the part I have done actually functions as expected -
particularly battery life. With four AAAs in series I should be able
to get 30 days in low power mode - gonna see if the theory resembles
reality :D
