Hi @JoeSensoric,
Yes, it’s that board. I’ve already disabled all unused GPIOs and physically removed the RGB LED.
Now the measured deep-sleep current is around 114 µA, so the board itself was indeed the main issue.
Thanks a lot for pointing that out!

ESP32‑C6 Zero deep sleep current draw (~667 µA)
Hi,
I'm testing an ESP32‑C6 Zero (Waveshare) and trying to keep the device in sleep mode most of the time to save battery power.
In my code I set all supported power domains to ESP_PD_OPTION_OFF before calling esp_deep_sleep_start(). The minimum current I measure is about 667 µA, powering the ...
