Voltage calculations mismatched causing server failure #21

Closed ShaneMazur closed 1 year ago

ShaneMazur commented 1 year ago

Curious why these calculations don't match?

  1. Calculation in test module Power=adc.readAdc(0)/255.0*5.0*3
  2. Calculation in ADC module battery_voltage=data[4]/255.0*5.0*2

Im not an electrical engineer so I'm not sure they are even supposed to match but it was causing me to run into the message The batteries power are too low. Please recharge the batteries or replace batteries. and then my server shutdown. Went out and bought new batteries - same thing.

Thanks @Shaynee-MO. Im on v1.6 so I'll proceed with the change. Just wondering, why for v2+ does it use 2 different calculations?
