Issue: When taking the initial voltage reading after first powering on, voltage hasn't had chance to stabilize so the reading can be inaccurate, which in turn may incorrectly trigger the low-power preset. (Manifests when the user has selected a low read interval and/or is using a capacitor). Resolution: A non-blocking, fixed 10 second delay has been added to the initial voltage reading to give the voltage time to stabilize. This is a reworked version of the (now closed) PR here: https://github.com/Aircoookie/WLED/pull/3959 - Rebased the update for 0_15. - Added a constant so the delay can be modified via my_config.h. - Small adjustments to make the PR compatible again after the recent restructuring in this PR: (https://github.com/Aircoookie/WLED/pull/3003). Thankyou!

# Welcome to the battery usermod! 🔋
|
|
|
|
Enables battery level monitoring of your project.
|
|
|
|
For this to work, the positive side of the (18650) battery must be connected to pin `A0` of the d1 mini/esp8266 with a 100k Ohm resistor (see [Useful Links](#useful-links)).
|
|
|
|
If you have an ESP32 board, connect the positive side of the battery to ADC1 (GPIO32 - GPIO39)
