siftyy Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Hey everyone! I just received my mark 5 and was looking for a way to use low power bluetooth to save battery on my phone. I looked on the forum and haven't seen anything, is that because it won't work or because there is no need for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siftyy Posted February 1, 2014 Author Share Posted February 1, 2014 Low power bluetooth on what? The pineapple? As a means of connection to your phone? yes, plugging a usb bluetooth dongle into the usb port so that you can connect your pineapple to your phone.

markcoker Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 you could prob even use the serial on both the phone and pineapple. i would assume this would consume the least amount of power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
