Power consumption in sleep mode 100 times larger than specifications #12

I am currently making some power consumption tests with the board (RAK 5205) and my findings are that with firmware 2.0.1.9 (and also with other previous versions) the minimum power consumption achieved is 1.6mA...

The datasheet says it consumes 14.5uA in sleep mode. That is more than 100 times less current... I'm no the only one experimenting this issue. Some users in the forum have experimented the same. (https://forum.rakwireless.com/t/rak5205-power-consumption-too-high/150)

I'm using:

ABP mode
app_interval=10
gps_stime=60
ps = 1 (power save)
msg_confirmation = 0

Please @RAKWireless can you say something about this?

Thanks
