Charge detection issue

Open pmirabel opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Hello!

Just upgraded my Floower. Thank you again for this huge upgrade! I can't wait to play with WiFi :) but ... There seems to be an issue (or something I didn't understood well).

  • I am using an "old" (few years) 12W mac charger with my floower.
  • BT connection works fine and I can see the "battery charging notification" on my iPhone Floower app homepage.
  • My issue is that settings page complains "Please charge your floower to enable wifi"
    • as long as a red warning logo just next to the above mentionned charging animation).
  • On the floower itself, i cannot see no red led shining.

best regards :)

NB: My floower is 24/24 connected to power, used (very) approx. 6 hours a week and and is a rev6.

Hi! That is a pretty old lady! I love that you still have it and use it :) I have Floower rev 6 as well so will test the latest upgrade for compatibility, thank you for reporting!

Yeah, unfortunately, you heard from me only when there are issues with my floower, but we are very happy with it. I have to admit though that I use it "offline, just using the leaf sensor to toggle light and opening" by now, because of the lack of wifi connection :)

I cannot wait to connect it to internet to enable some fun "notifications" with it.

If there is an hardware issue with my floower I would suggest to add an "override power security switch" with proper warnings in the app :) (or not, if it is just for me ...)

See you soon.
