@gohan said in Which dust sensor do you use and why?:
@korttoma if you have a library that can read the values from the sensor, you can easily add the mysensors code
yeah I know, I just thought that if @NeverDie already made a MySensors sketch I would not have to invent the wheel again.
@NeverDie what lib are you using and how? I2C?
Just received an Plantower PMS5003 allso, do you have a "MySensors" sketch that you could share?
@vladimir there is an example for using rotary encoder on this page:
Yeah, my 6075 device is also still working fine on the 2xAA batteries I put in it a year ago.
@madelle-kamois This has been done before. For some inspiration -> https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/157/diy-blind-control-motor
I found an ESP-07 so I uploaded the ESP8266 WiFi Gateway sketch to it an tested inclusion mode in Vera (MySensors plugin version 1.5) and it seems to work just fine for me. I used esp8266 Community version 2.4.1 in Arduino IDE 1.8.5 and MySensors version 2.2.1 -alpha. I'm really out of ideas why this is not working for you.
@mntlvr I got it from GitHub but it seems like the development version is now 2.3.0-alpha, not sure what has changed since I downloaded it.
@mntlvr sorry I do not have much experience with MySensors Library version 2.2. My 2 Gateways I run at home use 2.0.0 and 2.1.1. And my test GW (SensebenderGW) is running 2.2.1-alpha since there were some issue using RFM69 on the 2.2 version. Maybe you should try the development version also (2.2.1-alpha)? Unfortunately I ho not have any ESP8266 Gateways at the moment but I can see if I have one laying around so that I can test.
@nca78 I have now measured the current consumption of the small bluetooth beacon device (N51822 QFABC0) using your code and the results are encouraging.
With your code I get around 4uA sleep current compared to 800-4000uA with my old code 
Measurements done with an Micro (nano) ampere meter (double) that has not been calibrated against a reliable meter so do not take the measured values so seriously but more as a comparison.
1.8.4 of the IDE should be just fine, I'm using 1.8.5. But you need to check the AVR Boards definition you are using. 1.6.11 is know to work but newer versions are known to cause reboots in Ethernet GW and this is what seems to be happening for you.
