Deep Sleep Nodes
Overview
EspHome devices with the deep_sleep component support allows to put the device in an low power mode for a specified period of time. In this way such node can be powered by batteries and or solar panels.
Usage
Deep sleep mode is automatically enabled when the deep_sleep component is present in the configuration file. The EnableZeroConf option must be enabled in the meshmeshgo HUB to allow HomeAssistant to reconnect to the node as soon as it exits low-power mode.
