specs: max transient intensity #7

One more power supply question: what is the max transient intensity use in Amps that the batteries should be able to supply? :)

PaulZC commented 3 years ago

It will be somewhere between 300mA and 400mA, depending on the supercapacitor charge current, but you would need to measure it to be sure.

Thanks! As this is important for choosing the batteries, I wonder if this issue should be sticky and / or the information added to the documentation :) .
