- Low-power mode uses light sleep, a wake-up for each signal pulse change and a wake-up every 1000 ms to update pulse statistics and OLED. This results in about 90% sleep. Could be improved using deep sleep and ULP. However, light sleep is already quite good and much easier. - Low-power mode uses light sleep, a wake-up for each signal pulse change and a wake-up every 1000 ms to update pulse statistics and OLED.

- WiFi mode uses no sleep and simple interrupts for pulse counting. Pulse statistics and OLED are updated every 1000 ms, data is sent to thingspeak every 60 s. - WiFi mode uses no sleep and simple interrupts for pulse counting.
