What is so low energy about this device?

Why Bluno Beetle is called low energy device when it's not?
I'm trying for month now to contact Bluno Beatle (DFRobot) manufacturer to answer this question. On your wiki page there is no command which allows bluno to "go to sleep", by bluno I mean CC2540. When I put on board atmega to sleep mode power consumtion is never lower than 15mA. This is nowhere near low power. Manufacturer of CC2540 claims that it's chip drain 235- 0.4 uA of curren when sleeps. So why bluno drains so much more current? Please enlighten me
