49mA with display off and maximum wifi power savings
49mA with display off and maximum wifi power savings + DFS enabled while maintaining WiFi and 433Mhz connections to low power battery sensors Note that this is at 5.12V or roughly 80mA on 3.3V; CPU speed varied between 160 and 80Mhz as needed
Private repositories
I've kept myself busy the last few months according to my Github contributions stats, working mostly on private repositories
Chrome 404 error title has an extra 1
It is just me, or @Google's Chrome 404 error title has an extra '1' instead of '!' ? Someone's Shift key must have slipped. I find it cute though, shows that there are humans behind it.. #bug #Google @Google Version 76.0.3809.100 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Graphical resources of the TFT32 thermostat project
Considering moving all graphical resources (icons, fonts) of the TFT32 thermostat project to dedicated OTA update-capable partitions to allow GUI branding and customization. Few technical challenges to do so, but completely doable. PoC of that done, and working well. As a result of the decoupling of graphical resources from the code, the OTA image for…

ESP32 based thermostat controller/gateway project with TFT
It's close to a year since I started working on my ESP32 based thermostat controller/gateway project with TFT display. It now has 120K+ lines of code (components included), work done entirely at nights/weekends. What's the longest you have worked on a passion project? #IoT https://x.com/mharizanov/status/1027868368500666368
