I run the Null and the current draw is around 0.17mA. I test the program
from both Linux (where I compiled manually the toolchain) and Windows
(where I got the toolchain from the rpm posted on the tinyos site).

I attached the binary that I'm using. The command for burning is:
	uisp -dprog=mib510 -dserial=/dev/ttyUSB0 --wr_fuse_h=0xd9 -dpart=ATmega128 --wr_fuse_e=ff --erase --upload if=main.srec.out

Could you plese send me the main.srec.out from your Null? :-)

Thanks for help!
