Hi all,
In fact I'm curious: Is it big difference for a battery consumption if I use
B4X:
GPS1.start(0,0)
OR
B4X:
GPS1.start(30000,15)
Because GPS is started and use battery anyway.

Is there maybe better way to check location every 30 sec (to save battery).
For example:

GPS1.start(0,0)
Check location,
GPS1.Stop
After 30 sec
GPS1.start(0,0) ... and so on ...

But, if I write it like that, there is complication with an accuracy because on the very first beginning GPS needs more time to find precise location.
THX in advance
