This script checks actual power usage, no matter where it originates - from U-boot, screen, kernel, or whatever - so, I think that it should convince You, that everything is OK, after all.

I can try to convince me but please give me an answer for :

During last five days I have used U-Boot + PKv51 and the initial (first hours after a full recharge) idle power usage has been always at minimum near 11% for 9 hours, about 1.2% per hour. After some time also increased to higher levels.

This night I have flashed only PKv51 without U-Boot and this morning the result for idle power usage has been about 5% for 8 hours.
This may have been a fluke, so I will do additional testing in the coming days, but apparently from this first test the power usage appears to be half or less, why ?
