As I am planning to have Espruino powered entirely by solar panels and batteries I would like to know if there is any way to power down external devices such as the cc3000 or a 433mhz radio transmitter when not in use in order to save batteries.
As devices is powered by vbat or 3.3v could there be a kind of switch on/off function for those pin headers? What will happen when Espruino goes into deepsleep mode? How will that affect the powering of external devices?
