i see when i hook up the EZB it draws near 90 ma,to cut down on current like i did on the led you have draws 20 ma ,why not use a 2 ma led instead

Comm Expansion Configuration
— Configure EZ-B v4/2 Comm Expansion: switch between UART transparent proxy and USB direct PC link (avoids WiFi); EZ-B needs separate power.

Like a tiny rice led? Mines Amber , I'm.not fond of that color lol
With nothing connected to the EZ-B it draws unmeasured current in my tests. are you sure you're testing with no peripherals connected to the ez-b?
yep notthing,led has to draw 20 ma,then you got the bluetooth that draws some current then this is current called leakage current on the regulators,then the chip draws current with notthing attached except the bluetooth ,then you have resistor on the IC2 line ,in specs for the chip only 20 to 40 ma depends on the clock frequency maybe 70 to 80 ma draw total,dont know the specs on the bluetooth need to measure with notthing attached and bluetooth on
