Has anyone measured the the standby current draw from the opus while powering an Epia M10k in standby without USB devices attatched. Currently I have a separate 5VDC regulator powering the +5VSB to the Epia M10K. I measure ~150mA at the battery.
The 150W Opus does not have a jumper to configure the +5VSB rail. It's ALWAYS ON. Only the 90W Opus has this option.
