Default Re: MK14 SN74S571 PROM Power reduction test

When you consider that those displays were widely used in calculators running from a PP3 (9V) battery, that does seem quite high although I suppose in that application digits were only lit when you were activiely using the unit. At most, there may have been a single '0' lit when the calculator was waiting for input.

It'll be interesting to see what the restored 'large' display adds to (or even subtracts from) that.

Did you manage to fix the bubble display, then?
