Timer Interval Best Practice Question

[distans]

@Gunner

This is my current void setup() Probably still not perfect as something still bogs down every once in awhile… hence the WDT

I’ll bet you’re using Adafruits library for the DHT22 with a built-in 250 ms delay Check my post:

Blynk and While (Alternatives)

I think I found the culprit for the high latency! Since the sensors are very popular and widely used, others may find this to be of interest. If you Google DHT22, chances are you’ll end up at Adafruit’s homepage and consequently pick their library. In the DHT.cpp from their library you find this: `pinMode(_pin, INPUT_PULLUP);` and // Go into high impedence state to let pull-up raise data line level and // start the reading process. digitalWrite(_pin, HIGH); delay(250); This doesn’t…

I only have 6 timers in my sketch and the fastest interval is 1 second. But you have a lot going on at a fast rate so I can understand why it gets bogged down now and then. I haven’t experienced any problems but will add a LED and change the timers a bit.
