Note: Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. recommends that you incorporate a 10% buffer into the power source when
determining product load. The above power draw numbers are measurements from an MTR-EV3-B10.
Peak Tx: The peak current during a CDMA connection transmitting data at max power.
Maximum Power: The continuous current during maximum data rate with the radio transmitter at maximum
power
Inrush Charge: The total inrush charge at power on.
