Microduck's custom board redesign reportedly cuts battery draw and CPU temperature
Overview
Matth Lapeyre says Microduck's new custom board ran for over 3 hours on a 2600 mAh battery, with average current falling from about 1.13 A to 0.82 A and peak CPU temperature dropping from 114°C to 60°C without thermal throttling.
Lapeyre presented these results in a public post, which Hugging Face CEO Clément Delangue praised as a welcome building-in-public approach. These figures are Lapeyre's own test claims; no independent verification of the test conditions is reported.
