It's set to 2 seconds as I understand it. This to support reading a
single value every second or so.

I've been digging in the datasheet and it's really unclear how you're
supposed to control the two power registers.

I think it's best to just put both control values into on/off state at
the same time. I also prefer the simplicity of Linus' suggestion. I'll
do some testing to see if the device behaves properly.
