Yes, that is, what I am doing now.

Yes, I will do. I don't track the power. I've had a USB power meter some
time ago and use it with a Li-battery. So yet, I know the power from the
battery. But I could do so, if it is interesting.

Yes, that could help. But the main problem is, that you cannot
completely disable all unneeded device (like gpio, hdmi, spi) with the
CONFIG.TXT in FreeBSD like it works in Linux. But, yes I can compare the
"same use case" for a RPi on FreeBSD and Linux.
