• That's a hard one - you'd have to test - I think it'll depend on the brightness. analogWrite(LED1,0.99) will certainly use more power than digitalWrite(LED1,1).

    There is hardware PWM, but it requires the high-speed oscillator to be on - which will use power even though the processor is asleep.

    If you want a dim glow, by far the most power efficient way would be doing pinMode(LED1,"input_pullup") since then everything can be properly asleep.
