  BASIC Stamp power, SLEEP & brownout
When the Stamp enters brownout state, it may enter a mode where a constant drain of current is much larger than you were anticipating, especially if you had been counting on the SLEEP command to minimize power consumption.
Thus, if the chip enters a brownout and then recovers while it is asleep, the chip has no way of "knowing" that the brownout occured.
But it does not matter if the brownout occurs during sleep or during operation--it is a high power mode in either case.
