My project is battery powered (1.3Ah), has a mercury switch which activates an alarm for a few seconds then goes back to standby. This timer switch is perfect for the job but it still draws 2.4mA in standby even after I removed the led's. I'm guessing the culprit is a capacitor soaking up the power. I would like the battery to last months between charges but this current loss would kill it in a couple of weeks.
Is there any way to achieve zero drain in standby mode?
