Power Save Mode
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
The WiFi interface of all ESPs offer three power save modes to reduce the amount of power spent on
|
||||
WiFi. While some options *can* reduce the power usage of the ESP, they generally also decrease the
|
||||
reliability of the WiFi connection, with frequent disconnections from the router in the highest
|
||||
power saving mode.
|
||||
|
||||
If you know what you're doing and the node doesn't need to have an extremely reliable connection to WiFi,
|
||||
you can set the power saving mode to ``LIGHT`` or even ``HIGH``. But for most situations ``NONE`` is the best.
|
||||
|
||||
- ``NONE`` (Default, least power saving)
|
||||
- ``LIGHT``
|
||||
- ``HIGH`` (most power saving)
