--- id: power title: Power Configuration sidebar_label: Power --- import Tabs from '@theme/Tabs'; import TabItem from '@theme/TabItem'; The power config options are: Charge Current, Power Saving, Shutdown after losing power, ADC Multiplier Override Wait Bluetooth Interval, Mesh Super Deep Sleep Timeout, Super Deep Sleep Interval, Light Sleep Interval and Minimum Wake Interval. Power config uses an admin message sending a `Config.Power` protobuf. Power settings are advanced configuration, most users should choose a role under Device Config to manage power for their device. ## Power Config Values ### Charge Current **Tbeam 1.1 only setting** Sets the current of the battery charger using the AXP power chip on the Tbeam 1.1 ### Power Saving If set, we are powered from a low-current source (i.e. solar), so even if it looks like we have power flowing in we should try to minimize power consumption as much as possible. ### Shutdown after losing power Automatically shut down a device after a defined time period if power is lost. ### ADC Multiplier Override **Fixes issues on Heltec v2** Ratio of voltage divider for battery pin eg. 3.20 (R1=100k, R2=220k) Overrides the ADC_MULTIPLIER defined in the firmware device variant file for battery voltage calculation. Should be set to floating point value between 2 and 4 ### Wait Bluetooth Interval How long wait before turning off BLE in no Bluetooth states `0` for default of 1 minute ### Mesh Super Deep Sleep Timeout While in Light Sleep if this value is exceeded we will lower into super deep sleep or Super Deep Sleep Interval (default 1 year) or a button press `0` for default of two hours, MAXUINT for disabled ### Super Deep Sleep Interval While in Light Sleep if Mesh Super Deep Sleep Timeout Seconds is exceeded we will lower into super deep sleep or this value (default 1 year) or a button press `0` for default of one year ### Light Sleep Interval **ESP32 Only Setting** In light sleep the CPU is suspended, LoRa radio is on, BLE is off an GPS is on `0` for default of five minutes ### Minimum Wake Interval While in light sleep when we receive packets on the LoRa radio we will wake and handle them and stay awake in no Bluetooth mode for this interval `0` for default of 10 seconds ## Power Config Client Availability :::info Light Sleep Interval and Wait Bluetooth Interval are available under advanced settings for Android. ::: :::info Power config is not available on Apple OS's. ::: All Power config options are available in the python CLI. | Setting | Acceptable Values | Default | | :----------------------------: | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------: | :-------: | | charge_current | `MAUnset`, `MA100`, `MA190`, `MA280`, `MA360`, `MA450`, `MA550`, `MA630`, `MA700`, `MA780`, `MA880`, `MA960`, `MA1000`, `MA1080`, `MA1160`, `MA1240`, `MA1320`: | `MAUnset` | | is_power_saving | `true`, `false` | `false` | | on_battery_shutdown_after_secs | `integer` (seconds) | Default of `0` is off | | adc_multiplier_override | `2-4` (floating point value) | Default of `0` uses firmware values | | wait_bluetooth_secs | `integer` (seconds) | Default of `0` is 1 minute | | mesh_sds_timeout_secs | `integer` (seconds) | Default of `0` is 2 hours | | sds_secs | `integer` (seconds) | Default of `0` is 1 year | | ls_secs | `integer` (seconds) | Default of `0` is 1 hour | | min_wake_secs | `integer` (seconds) | Default of `0` is 10 seconds | ```shell title="Unset charge current" meshtastic --set charge_current MAUnset ``` ```shell title="Set charge current" meshtastic --set charge_current MA100 ``` ```shell title="Enable is_power_saving" meshtastic --set is_power_saving true ``` ```shell title="Disable is_power_saving" meshtastic --set is_power_saving false ``` ```shell title="Disable on_battery_shutdown_after_secs" meshtastic --set on_battery_shutdown_after_secs 0 ``` ```shell title="Set device to shutdown after 120 seconds on battery" meshtastic --set on_battery_shutdown_after_secs 120 ``` ```shell title="Set wait_bluetooth_secs to default (60 seconds)" meshtastic --set wait_bluetooth_secs 0 ``` ```shell title="Set wait_bluetooth_secs to 120 seconds" meshtastic --set wait_bluetooth_secs 120 ``` ```shell title="Set mesh_sds_timeout_secs to default (2 hour/7200 seconds)" meshtastic --set mesh_sds_timeout_secs 0 ``` ```shell title="Set mesh_sds_timeout_secs to 120 seconds" meshtastic --set mesh_sds_timeout_secs 120 ``` ```shell title="Disable mesh_sds_timeout_secs (using MAXUINT)" meshtastic --set mesh_sds_timeout_secs 4294967295 ``` ```shell title="Set sds_secs to default (1 year)" meshtastic --set sds_secs 0 ``` ```shell title="Set sds_secs to 120 seconds" meshtastic --set sds_secs 120 ``` ```shell title="Set ls_secs to default (5 minutes 300 seconds)" meshtastic --set ls_secs 0 ``` ```shell title="Set ls_secs to 120 seconds" meshtastic --set ls_secs 120 ``` ```shell title="Set min_wake_secs to default (10 seconds)" meshtastic --set min_wake_secs 0 ``` ```shell title="Set min_wake_secs to 120 seconds" meshtastic --set min_wake_secs 120 ``` :::info Power config is not available in the Flasher. ::: :::info Power config is not available in the Web UI. :::
