Hi,

I am having a little bit of an issue with the power consumption of the wifi module. The application am using the chip for requires 24/7 data collecting and send it to the cloud. But it consumes a lot of power and powering the chip off Batteries is almost impossible??

Is it possible to collect the data 24/7 in sleep mode? and then wake up the chip to send all data collected once and then go back to sleep mode? the important thing it must not miss any data while in sleep mode?

If not, any other suggestions?

thanks a lot

Is it possible to collect the data 24/7 in sleep mode?

Is it possible for you to collect data while you are sleeping? Of course not. It's impossible for the ESP, too.

Now, that doesn't mean that you can't wake up periodically to collect data, but then you won't be collecting data 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

the important thing it must not miss any data while in sleep mode?

Is that a statement or a question? Funny punctuation for a statement.
