1. A method, comprising:
- sampling analyte level with an analyte sensor in fluid contact with interstitial fluid under a skin surface, the analyte sensor powered with a power supply of sensor electronics operatively coupled to the analyte sensor;
converting the sampled analyte level into data signals for data transmission, each data signal corresponding to sampled analyte level;
incrementing a count associated with the data signals converted from the sampled analyte level for data transmission;
storing the count and the data signals; and
estimating a level of power in the power supply based on the count.
