My setup
- I use 300 Led ws2812 to power something from 7 am to 11 pm.
- At 11pm, a smart plug switches off and starts again at 7 am next morning
- I was running this setup on ESP-12E board over the past 2 years …
- I powered the LED and ESP with same 5v 10A smps
- Sometime back I got a Nodemcu with base board deployed latest wled and tried running with same ws2812.
- Everything worked as expected, EXCEPT, the lights randomly early and now almost everytime do not start any automation at 7am when smart plug switches power supply. I can’t detect my Nodemcu on wled app.
- The only thing works is if I switch off the plug, remove wled, switch on and then add wled back.
- If I try to power on Nodemcu with a different usb mini power supply, and wled with my original snps, it doesn’t control the lights . I can see Nodemcu on wled app but wled is doing something on its own
Any suggestions for points 7 and 8. What should I be doing.
