ThinkNode M3 companion: high consumption #3136

Description

@user784213

Using a ThinkNode M3 (nRF52840 + LR1110), I encountered the following problem: the companion only lasts 24 hours. The device has a 770mAh battery. This is obviously too short a battery life for this hardware.

I disassembled the device to measure directly on the battery cable:
I see a constant consumption of 28mA.
After sending a message via lora for a while (about 30 seconds), the consumption remains at 34mA.
At first, I thought the GNSS was active, but this is not the case. With GNSS active, I see a consumption of 50mA.

The device has thinknode_m3_bootloader-0.9.2-OTAFIX2.2.uf2 and ThinkNode_M3_companion_radio_ble-nightly-47154f0.zip installed.
