In addition to the warning about the OLED framed plugin, there could be other situations where your precious flash chip is also at risk. Although i would not know about any normal situation where this could occur. But if you would happen to use the rules engine like this:
it will also likely kill your ESP flash in a few months time...
(Yes i know, the example does not make much sense, but it is possible to do this!)
Besides the bad example, regular users are likely unaware about the internals of this project and would not know when stuff is written to flash memory.
So it might be wise to run a check on these log entries (set you log level to '2'):
If they appear on a regular base, or each time you push a button or send a command from your Home Automation software, you have to start getting worried a bit...
In case of doubt, please report here so I can have a look at your specific case.
You could also start using R131 from github and check the webgui:
Code: Select all
On Clock#Time do // every minute...
save
endon
