Add Battery Life section with worked examples#5
Merged
Conversation
Prompted by a customer question about MMS runtime for full IMU + sensor fusion logging. Expands the power section into an explicit Battery Life treatment: - Clarifies the Sensor Fusion current figure is MCU overhead ADDED to the underlying sensors the mode drives (was a double-counting trap) - Notes a logging session ends when EITHER the battery or the on-board flash runs out, whichever is first, and how to estimate both - Worked-examples table for the MMS covering accel-only, full IMU, NDoF->Euler logging, and the same streamed over BLE The headline result for the common "fusion -> Euler, 100 Hz, logging" configuration: ~2 days on the MMS, with battery and 512 MB flash running out at nearly the same time.

Summary
Adds an explicit Battery Life section to the API spec, prompted by a customer asking how long an MMS lasts running full IMU + sensor fusion logging.
Headline: the common "fusion → Euler, 100 Hz, logging" config is ~2 days on the MMS, with battery and 512 MB flash exhausting at nearly the same time.
