Which is one of the biggest advantage of single board computers with specifications which are similar to a MangoPi MQ-Quad?

  • Low power consumption.
  • We did a short test to test the battery life of a Raspberri Pi 4 using a 10 000 mAh power bank.
  • Battery life with this power bank if the device was idle was around 4 hours.
  • Then, we did a test with a single board computer which has similar specifications as the MangoPi MQ-Quad single board computer.
  • After 24 h running time at idle the 10 000 mAh battery was decharged to only about 50 %.
  • These data first need to be confirmed to see if we did not a mistake.
  • But also in an instruction which uses the Radxa Zero to build a mini PC for off-roard applications, it says that the Raxda zero which also has similar specifications as the device we tested, it says that the Radxa Zero single board computer basically run forever.
