As you may have seen, there was quite a delay between the last nightly build and the one before (> 2 months, which is exceptionally long)
This was mainly because of issues with build size.
I also did not want to change too much things at once (failed on that one a bit....) so I can merge your PR so it can be tested a bit more before the next build is made.

If Ton does not have any objections, I will merge it.

I don't mind, but I haven't used / tested it, so actually can't object if the code seems stable ;)

i am using the new P003 enhancement for quiet some time now (build 0411) and can tell that it has been very stable
I use it in a production environment (watermeter)

@TD-er
if you merge it please point me to the location so i can download it.(assuming you do not create a new release)

Hi GravityRZ,

What settings are you using and is giving the best results?

at the moment i am using 88ms when using pulse low

it al depends on how long the signal is low
if this time is very short then you also need a short debounce time, roughly 1/10 of the time the signal is low.

in my situation i use it for a watermeter.
this can have a flow of 0-25 liters a second so this affects the pulselow time also
you want to have a debounce time which will work when the flow is low but also still works when the flow is high

Also using the "0411" build with a bk-g4 gas meter. Works quite nicely - the false counts I had previously are gone and the debug output gives a lot of insight. Great job thanks!
