AutoConnect
An Arduino library for ESP8266/ESP32 WLAN configuration at runtime with the Web interface
I want to save power on a battery powered sensor but I also want to have AutoConnect set up to set up and configure the wifi. Since having the wi-fi running it can take up a lot of energy I would like to make sure that none of the battery is used during the programming set up. I was thinking that the AutoConnect would only run when it detects that it is plugged into a 5v usb port. I also want a switch so that the usb can power either the sensor (lower power) or the wifi configuration (high power) parts of the program. How would I best accomplish this?
