Some Basic Tips For How To Conserve Battery Life with IoT Projects

Full write-up https://core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/how-to-conserve-battery-life-with-iot-projects.html

If you’ve ever created a project that uses batteries, you’ll be well aware how hard it can be to decide on elements in the project which can affect the battery life. You end up ‘umming’ and ‘ahhing’ for ages about whether you should use LEDs as indicators, how often it should connect to the cloud or network (for IoT projects), and how you can minimise general power consumption.

It can be a tricky thought process and it's why commercial products are designed in such specific ways to minimise power usage. So, I thought we could take a look at some tips and tricks that you can use, especially in IoT projects, but also any portable project, to conserve battery life.
