Early EasyMini prototypes - used a 3.0V regulator, and AltosUI still used that value as - the basis of the computation. Production EasyMini boards - have always shipped with a 3.3V regulator. Also, purple - EasyMini boards sensed the battery voltage past the blocking - diode, resulting in a drop of about 150mV from the true - battery voltage.
