Be careful.  You could easily violate the assumptions that underly the 
power management on these devices, and run the battery down very 
quickly.  In particular, the tactic apparently used on some Windows 
keyers, to get accurate timing, would run the device continuously at 
full power.

Violating the power management assumptions may also violate the thermal 
management assumptions and result in either overheating, or the the 
procesor throttling back, to protect itself.
