Hi I have a project that runs on batteries, it wakes every 5 mins and connects to WiFi as quick as possible sends data and goes back to sleep for another 5 minutes and keeps doing this routine until battery runs out. It will run on AAA batteries for about 30 days.
It uses a ESP-01 which does use very little current in sleep, this was designed 3 years ago.
I am wondering are there any new modules that still use little current in sleep,
( Ideally with USB socket for ease of initial programming, but I suspect that this will use much more current in sleep ? )
Possibly ESP S2 Mini V1.0.0 or ESP32-C3 ?
Any thoughts or suggestions welcome
Thanks
