Re: V_BAT Monitoring on Huzzah Feather

regarding the voltage divider.. i'd be concerned about leakage current, especially with relative high C's. Instead you could try switching the lower point of your divider using a free gpio and use a much lower impendance (something like 3k3/1k). Helps also with noise and external EMC issues... The o...

Re: V_BAT Monitoring on Huzzah Feather

as for the dim red LED, it seems to be a port issue (pin is left floating in deep sleep mode). They suggest using a weak pullup resistor and/or cutting traces or desoldering the LED..

Re: Docker image

Glad to see it has worked for you. I forgot to mention one obvious thing: The dockerfile can be used on any OS where docker runs. So Windows users might also try it out... The container itself runs on ubuntu14.04. It might also be useful on linux since the container provides a separation of your dev...

Docker image

I'm on OSX and had some troubles installing the 8266 toolchain. So I thought I gave Docker a try. I came up with this Dockerfile https://gist.github.com/hoihu/bebcb195287233b7c6ff477e235d2fc4 that builds and installs the espopen toolchain and builds micropython for the 8266. Maybe that is helpful fo...

Re: MicroPython on ESP8266 Kickstarter

ok so I guess I was so excited about V4 that I wanted to connect to my Huzzah Board using http://192.168.4.1:8266 instead of the provided webpage (which uses ws://....) .. REPL is now working - sorry about that. However, it seems strange to me that http requests to the above adress actually crashes ...

Re: MicroPython on ESP8266 Kickstarter

So the Alpha4 has been released, thanks! Unfortunately, on my machine webrepl doesn't seem to work (whereas V3 did). I erased flash before updating, just to make sure but with the same results. I'm on Adafruit's Huzzah Board. Here is the traceback from a example session: >>> import webrepl as w >>> ...

Re: Standard API for drivers?

@Turbinenreiter: See the responses on the link above.

I cannot judge implementation efficiencies of properties but Damiens argument makes a lot of sense to me.

Re: Standard API for drivers?

I agree on that, thats an important aspect and should be clarified. from pauls answer on my pull request https://github.com/micropython/micropython/pull/1843 there will be more driver provided by him or damien as part of the 8266 kickstarter. I guess once they release those drivers, a short "best pr...

Re: Early access release #3

I'm using a Huzzah feather board. Webrepl2 seems to work, but when I do CTRL+D it comes up with OS Error112 when I import webrepl2 a second time after reset. Strangely, repeating import webrepl2 afterwards throws no error, but it doesn't seem to work either. Complete REPL session: >>> import webrepl...
