What is the power consumption (mA) of the 05103, 05305, and 05106 anemometers?

The short answer is less than 0.01 mA. The wind speed signal requires no power. The wind direction portion of the sensor only uses a maximum of 0.5 mA when excited with 5 Vdc, and then it is only on for 0.016 sec every measurement. When the wind direction is measured every second (typical), then the average current drain is less than 0.01 mA.
