Very interesting, indeed!

To all worrying about power consumption of the W2 (when connected to the K3's 12 V output), it hardly ever reaches 500 mA with LED brightness set to maximum - and some 100 mA when set to minimum (which IMHO is more than bright enough).

We'll be making a number of improvements to W2 firmware in future  
releases (starting in January). Firmware updates are very easy to do  
on the W2, and the required serial cable is supplied.
