Esp-01 doesnt work after updating AT firmware

Some ESP’s are certainly recorded at > 320mA on boot up even though many will run around 70mA.

Boot up is important so it’s worth trying something that can give you at least 500mA.

here it’s a bit cheaper.
BTW, connect it to the USB power pin on arduino (5.2v) instead of regulated 5v…

@vshymanskyy found them last night, thanks.

“ESP-01 Adatper” :wink:

I’ve set wrong fuses on atmega, so it was running at 8mhz, and IDE compiled code for 16mhz, thus serial wasn’t working. But still, i can’t get it to connect :smiley: it just stays at wifi connected.
