Well , i hope you do not stick your neck to far out as you are not
quite right in your response.
The drain current on the 4Ti is about 7 micro Ampers, not milli amps
( you are admittedly much less off the mark then the original
poster)
The acceptable drain on the plain 4 is roughly about 20 micro
ampers. If the drain goes significantly above that is is probably
not worht the trouble.
All of the OM3 have about 30 micro Ampers drain current. It is not
uncommon for an early OM4 to have that drain current as well.
