I repeated the test using my highly accurate Harbor Freight meter.? ;-)
Not the needle on my old linear power supply.
My figures now agree with Don's measurements to within a couple ma.
?
Voltage should not affect the current draw by much at all.
Should be the same current with 8v as it is at 15v into the Raduino, within a couple ma.

OK, I just did the same test. Brand new, just out of the box, 12.5 volt source. I get 61.5 milliamps. De-power. Unplug the display. I get 40.8 milliamps when repowered. -Don
